Like all dogs bloodhounds might gag if they pull on their collar too much while going for a walk. If this is happening, I suggest you get your dog a harness.

There is also a sickness called Kennel Cough. This isn't very serious but it should be treated. The most common symptom is a dry hacking cough sometimes followed by retching. Many owners describe the cough as having a 'honking sound.' A watery nasal discharge may also be present. With mild cases, dogs continue to eat and be alert and active. Many times, there is a recent history of boarding or coming in contact with other dogs. In more severe cases, the symptoms may progress and include lethargy, fever, inappetence, pneumonia, and in very severe cases, even death. The majority of severe cases occur in immunocompromised animals, or young unvaccinated puppies.
