Not the best way to start the week but knowledge is power. πΏπΎ
Kennel Cough is doing the rounds again, it's likely we have our first case of the dreaded KC. Please keep an eye out for any symptoms.
Below is a video from last year of my copilot(part time angel)Bee with KC. Poor girl was really poorly with it. Made worse as she's a brachycephalic breed(short wee face).
Please keep your dogs isolated from other dogs as it is highly contagious and can be fatal for puppies, the elderly and dogs with preexisting health conditions.
The van is disinfected each day as this is standard practice.
Small amounts of honey and slippery elm powder boiled can help with discomfort however please speak to a vet with any concerns.
The main symptom is the cough, which is often described as a 'hacking cough'. It may sound like your dog is trying to clear something stuck in their throat or retching. Occasionally they may also cough up frothy white phlegm. Some dogs will also have a runny nose, eye discharge and be a bit sneezy.
Cooper Jaunts
Cooper's dad messaged me the other day wondering where some of the walks we go on are πΏ
After some questionable map screen shots and very creative doodles on my part, Cooper's dad found one of the walks today and as you can see Cooper was so thrilled he had to have a lie downπ
Please feel free to message if you ever want to know where we go on our jaunts I'm happy to direct you(somewhat badly) π
