How long for vaccinated dog to typically recover from Bortadella?

Thanks for the question! I'm sorry to hear that your dog is dealing with Bordetella, commonly known as kennel cough. It's tough to see our furry friends under the weather. Luckily, since your dog is vaccinated, the recovery time is usually shorter and the symptoms tend to be milder. Most dogs start to feel better within one to two weeks, although a mild cough can linger for a bit longer.



In the meantime, you can help make your dog more comfortable at home. Provide a cozy, quiet space where your dog can rest undisturbed. Ensure they have plenty of fresh water, as staying hydrated can help soothe their throat. If they seem to find walking more difficult or tiring, keep walks shorter to avoid overexertion.



Keep an eye on signs that might indicate a more serious issue, like breathing difficulties, loss of appetite, lethargy, or worsening symptoms. If you notice any of these, it's important to seek veterinary attention promptly.



Finally, if you have any lingering concerns or need more guidance, it’s a great idea to book a video consult with Dial A Vet. We're here to help and provide the support you and your pet need.
