What is kennel cough? Symptoms and treatment of kennel cough

At present, it is the time when the two seasons change, the temperature changes greatly, and the temperature difference between day and night is large. At this time, it is particularly easy to cause many canine infectious diseases, among which kennel cough also enters the peak period.
Kennel cough, also known as canine infectious tracheobronchitis, is a canine infectious respiratory disease caused by a variety of pathogens and can affect dogs of any age. As long as one dog has this symptom, other dogs that come into contact with it will also have this symptom. The course of the disease is more than a week, and in a few cases it can last for several months. Most dogs can gradually recover as their body's resistance improves, but a few dogs will develop bronchopneumonia due to lack of timely treatment.
In the early stage of the disease, the dog's symptoms include dry cough, and occasional vomiting or nausea after coughing, but the spirit and appetite are normal, generally there is no fever, and there are no symptoms such as nasal discharge. Within a few days, his symptoms included painful cough, elevated body temperature, loss of appetite, and purulent nasal discharge.
The treatment of kennel cough requires treating both the symptoms and the root causes. On the one hand, symptoms such as coughing must be controlled, and on the other hand, the pathogens must be killed. It should be noted that because kennel cough is often induced by a variety of pathogenic bacteria, it is difficult for general drugs to reach this site, and most antibiotics cannot have an immediate therapeutic effect. Some dog owners use large doses of antibiotics for this reason. However, this approach is very unscientific. High doses of antibiotics for a long time will destroy the immune barrier of the dog's body and create opportunities for virus invasion.
In the early stage, if this situation is found, the dog can be fed some antiviral oral liquid, such as Shuanghuanglian oral liquid plus Shedan Chuanbei liquid, etc., and then injected with dexamethasone. Also pay attention to keeping your dog warm from the cold. In addition, don’t forget to disinfect your home regularly to give your dog a clean environment!
