Coughing.....

My 10 year old Chihuahua started coughing a few weeks ago and I took him to the vet that gave him some med's to take and all seemed good 2 weeks ago. Yesterday he started again. Your thoughts, he sounds like a duck... and he has not been around any other dogs.

    He was not around other dogs but was he around where other dogs had been? Like rest stops campgrounds etc

    Did you stop the meds or did the supply run out?
    What was the diagnosis
    What were the meds?

    Without more info it could be bronchitis to heartworm causing heart failure.
    BUT WHATEVER IT IS the dog needs to go back to the vet.
