Description
Kennel cough, is predominately found in dogs and is a respiratory infection caused by Bordetella bronchiseptica, adenovirus and canine parainfluenza virus. These pathogens attack the cilia lining of the respiratory tract causing inflammation of the upper airway, resulting in a cough. This irritation makes your dog susceptible to secondary infection. Kennel cough is extremely contagious. In some cases, the situation may be complicated by secondary bacterial pneumonia. Extra care is required to prevent pneumonia and improve breathing.
When a dog has kennel cough or has been in contact with an infected animal it is just as important to support their immune system as it is to address the symptoms of the cough itself.
NHV Resp-aid is a dog kennel cough supplement that helps to sooth the upper respiratory tract, reduce inflammation, fight infection and ease congestion.
