A cough sounding like something is stuck often points to 'kennel cough' (infectious tracheobronchitis), especially if your dog has recently been around other dogs. However, it could also be due to allergies, a foreign object, esophageal irritation, or even early signs of heart or lung issues. Observe for other symptoms like lethargy, difficulty breathing, or loss of appetite. Keep them rested and ensure good hydration. If the cough persists, worsens, or is accompanied by other symptoms, a vet visit is needed for diagnosis. Speak to Dial A Vet via a video consult should you need further guidance.
