Kennel Cough And Holistic Treatments For Your Pet

It commences as a simple upper respiratory tract infection that manifests in the intermittent coughing of a poor canine. The dry coughing and gagging sounds would have been tolerable if the disease could be isolated with the dog in the full course of treatment. But then again, Kennel Cough happens to be a very contagious infection and the disease could easily transmit to another pet dog in the home or more conveniently in enclosed places such as kennel quarters or boarding schools to infect the entire canine population lodged in the confines. Moreover, kennel cough could progress into a severe respiratory complication such as pneumonia, should the pet owner opt to ignore the dog’s condition and disregard the need for treatment.

As a matter of convention, a treatment of antibiotics and veterinary drugs-following consultations with the veterinarian, should subdue the bacteria or virus and dissolve the flimsy mucus inhabiting the canine’s respiratory tract. Nevertheless, in case the infection becomes increasingly persistent, this should get you thinking if continued use of pet medications would be favorable to your pet’s long-term health.

Canine Seizures – Three Things To Know And Do When Your Dog Takes A Seizure

By pet-admin, May 26, 2008 2:05 pm

From long experience of a fitting dog, I’m less anguished during a seizure now than when my Boxer dog Gregory took his first fit more than three years ago. In the early days I worried his legs would break as they thrashed about violently, I thought he might swallow his tongue, or even die during a fit.

In short time I realised Gregory’s fits were predictable, in frequency, duration, and pattern. And I learned how to cope with worst case scenarios.

From day one I kept a diary of his fits, which occurred every 14 days or so, almost to the day. Invariably there’d be three separate fits, extending overall to half an hour or so followed by a couple of hours of Gregory pacing the floor, panting, drinking, and eating everything in sight.
