If you haven't been to your vet and had a good check-up on your little dog, then please do so ASAP. Coughing can mean anything from failure of the lungs (water on the lungs), heart condition, pneumonia, etc. It's better to be safe than sorry. There are medications to help with these problems if caught in time. Good luck Marcy

it sounds l you r puppy may have a very milkd case of kennel cough... it will go away and if you cant aford to get the scripts for them then you can always go to wal-greens and get chrildren's cough syrup and give her two tea spoons a day for two weeks. even if she sounds better keep giving it to her.. if not treated she can die from phemonia. so please don't take it lightly. and remember she didt have to get it fom being boarded. she could have easilly got it from the dog parks... And you and your puppy will be in my prayers.. Good Luck...

Can you give cough syrup to your dog?

You should never give human medications to dogs - dogs do not react to the medications the same way people do. In particular, you should not give an antitussive (cough suppressant) to your dog if he is coughing as the coughing is his body's way of getting disease out of his lungs. If your dog is coughing, you should take him to the veterinarian for evaluation - there are several common causes of coughing in dogs (most notably "kennel cough") that need to be treated with antibiotics.
