Kennel Cough Treatment in Dogs (is it really needed?) - Dog Health Vet Advice

Kennel cough in dogs is a common infectious disease but are antibiotics always the best way to treat it? Can you in fact simply treat them at home? Also, does the vary depending on the age of a dog, or other diseases they might be suffering from?
Kennel cough is a syndrome meaning that there are a number of different causes. Very often it is actually self-limiting, meaning that a dog will recover without any treatment at all.
Some dogs though are at a much higher risk of developing complications and serious disease.

The honey is for the antibacterial properties, much like essential oils like oregano oil or coconut oil, raw honey doesn't just soothe their throat.

Hello if you still reply plss reply my dog have a kennel cough for almost a month now and we do all the things you guys said like honey but can I ask a question how can we know that my dog is getting better?

[@OurPetsHealth]

If it's been a month then I would want to check that the right diagnosis has been given and different treatment isn't actually needed

I feel so bad I skipped the vaccine and now my baby is suffering. NEVER again! He’s three and will not eat.

[@jasvir472998]

how is he now

[@KristineMcFinnley]

@@jasvir472998 turns out our dog did not have kennel cough; he has Valley Fever. He's been on anti-fungal meds since January. He's not coughing any more, but VF is becoming more common and vets are missing it. Riley was only tested for it because after two rounds of anti-biotics I asked for a VF titer test because of research I did. We have him on other herbs to support his liver and immune system.

My dog got the kennel cough vaccine, and started showing symptoms that afternoon. Now both of my dogs have it bad. I will not give them any more vaccines

Can puppies try honey for kennel cough?

[@OurPetsHealth]

It can help if they are not unwell in themselves

[@3333ferret]

What antibiotics is what we need so you are no help

[@OurPetsHealth]

Most cases don’t need antibiotics, and only a vet you physically see can make a diagnosis and prescribe medication
