ealj2 asked: Jasper, Sorry you aren't feeling well! What exactly is kennel cough? Since you don't live in a kennel, how did you get this horrid condition? Hope you are feeling better soon!!

I AM feeling better, thank you!  I’m certainly not an expert on such things, but what I do know it’s a respiratory issue that usually includes a hacking cough with bits of nastiness coming up.  Mine was actually very mild, no fever, no lung congestion… I was just hacking up lots of “froth” and it really scared the uprights.  It’s called “kennel cough” because it’s SUPER contagious and is often transmitted at kennels.  I was at camp last weekend and that’s where I got it.  Hope that helps!

I went to the vet today and I have kennel cough.  I’m on meds now and resting comfortably.
