Dog woke up this morning about 8 coughing and puking. This occured for most of the day. I called the vet about 4 and he said he had tracheal bronchitis. After meeting the doc and getting some meds, he said he treated around 50 cases last week.
Chronic bronchitis (CB) is an inflammatory airway disease, which, in association with tracheobronchial collapse, is probably the most common chronic canine airway disorder. Inflammation within airways causes chronic cough and excessive mucus production. Because, dogs can’t expectorate (spit), it is not always easy to know if the dog is making increased airway mucus. Therefore, the diagnosis of CB is usually based on chronic cough alone. [/b][/u]
