Is it normal for a dog to have a dry cough after getting his teeth cleaned by hi!


Question: Yes, quite normal. Whenever your dog gets his teeth cleaned he is put under with anesthesia which requires a tube down the throat which could have quite possibly irritated his throat causing him to cough. If it is persistent for a few more days, take him back into the vet for a checkup and make sure he's okay.

No. I wonder how long ago he had his teeth cleaned? He may have picked up kennel cough at the vet's office.

Yes, his throat was irritated by the intubation tube the vet had down his throat while he was anethetised. It will stop in a couple of days.

There are several reasons why your dog may be coughing but you should never assume that it is normal. Call your vet immediately so that they are aware of the coughing, and so that they can advise you on what actions to take if it persists.

a possible reaction to any of the ingredients used, if its still ongoing after a couple of days it would be worth mentioning to the vets incase he has caught something
