Stetson caught the cold first and about 5 days later Linus was showing similar symptoms. It seemed to me like it was just a common cold the same one I&#8217;d get as a kid playing with all my friends on the playground. When I look back I think Stetson caught the cold in similar fashion that is playing with a group of his doggy friends. One of his friends must have had the same<strong> respiratory infection<\/strong> and past it on the Stetson.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Canine Respiratory Infection Symptoms<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A few days after one of Stetson&#8217;s play dates he started showing symptoms of a cold. He first started blowing out his nose like there was some kind of blockage. I took a closer look and it appeared that he had a runny nose. He also started wheezing, sneezing, and hyperventilating from time to time. Besides all that Stetson acted as if nothing was wrong&#8230;his behavior was normal. I checked in with <a title=\"Guide Dogs of America\" href=\"http:\/\/guidedogsofamerica.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Guide Dogs of America<\/a> and they asked me to bring Stetson into the veterinarian.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Veterinarian&#8217;s Recommendation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The veterinarian took a look at Stetson and also observed many of the symptoms I mentioned above. After a few minutes she recommended he start taking antibiotics. He was prescribed Doxycyclin and was to take one pill twice a day for ten days. After about seven days I noticed Stetson&#8217;s symptoms cleared up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Antibiotics Vs. No Antibiotics<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you recall when both Stetson and Linus had kennel cough I kept Linus off the antibiotics to see if his symptoms would clear up on their own. Here&#8217;s a link to that article:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a title=\"My Dog's Got Kennel Cough...Now What?\" href=\"https:\/\/puppyintraining.com\/what-to-do-if-your-dog-has-kennel-cough\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener\">My Dog&#8217;s Got Kennel Cough&#8230;Now What?<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I tried the same idea of antibiotics vs. no antibiotics with the <strong>canine respiratory infection<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Linus had the same symptoms as Stetson, but unlike Stetson I didn&#8217;t put Linus on antibiotics. I decided that because Linus did not have a loss of energy or act any differently besides his <strong>respiratory infection <\/strong>that I would keep him off antibiotics. I figured Linus would get better on his own after all I don&#8217;t run to the doctor at the first sign of a cold. So, I let Linus&#8217;s natural immune system fight off his infection and after about 5 days he stopped showing signs of the <strong>canine respiratory infection<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Has your dog or puppy had a <strong>canine respiratory infection<\/strong>? Did you give your dog antibiotics?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Recently both my dogs caught a Canine Respiratory Infection (was this Kennel Cough again?).
