Puppy has a cold (?)

• Puppy has a cold (?) Joshua Mattern Posted : 1/19/2007 6:33:40 PM Hey, all.    Silly problem, maybe, but I wanted someone's input anyway.   I have a 10-month old pound rescue puppy.  She is of mixed breed, but predominantley (sp) border collie.  Kenzie is up to date on all shots and immunizations, and, aside from the first few days after adoption, has had absolutely zero health problems.   Yesterday, though, she developed what I can only describe as a cold.  She has sporadic, if infrequent, periods of loud, raspy breathing.  And last night, as she slept, she sounded like her nose was stopped up all night.  But she's ACTING healthy otherwise (currently barking her freaking head off 'cause I'm daring to ignore her).  Do dogs just get 'common colds'?  Should I just let this go and hope it goes away in a couple days?  LIKE 2 REPLIES 166 VIEWS LAST POST JOSHUA MATTERN Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.
