I feel my 2.5 yr old female labrador has cold. She snores loudly like humans do. Is that normal? How can I know if she has cold or not? If she has cold what can I give her?

Dr. Kaveri Giriraddi

The cold or cough can because of respiratory infection or because of kennel cough So have to be differentciated because what the cough or cold is then we can start the treatment

She is not coughing at all, but has runny nose and sneezing sometimes, and watery eyes often.

Dr. Kaveri Giriraddi

It can be because of allergy or can be respiratory tract infection If it's because of allergy it will reduce in one or two days If it's because of respiratory tract infection antibiotics and respiratory syrups has to be given

There is a construction work going on infront our house, due to which there is too much dust, could that be a reason? Also she has been showing all these symptoms from past 4 days

Dr. Kaveri Giriraddi

Yes that can a reason also so try to avoid that she wonot get exposed to that dust then it may reduce after one or two days
