Though they are not at greater risk to it, Labrador dogs may suffer cough too. Different breeds of dogs, even noticeably healthy Labrador dogs are not totally exempted from acquiring kennel cough. This cough usually started with the sound as if your dog wants to clear his throat.

Kennel cough, also called tracheobronchitis, is a highly contagious disease brought by several infectious agents. This illness targets the dog’s upper respiratory system, irritating and damaging the trachea and upper bronchi.

Affected dogs will suffer from harsh, dry/hacking coughing that includes retching, sneezing and snorting. A watery nasal discharge may be experienced. These symptoms usually last approximately seven to twenty days. Kennel cough is just like common chest cold in humans.
