If your dog is sneezing after being picked up from the boarding kennel, it could be due to several factors such as a change in environment or exposure to other dogs, which may sometimes result in minor health issues.
- Increased sneezing
- Possible nasal discharge
- Contact with other dogs and new environments
It's common for dogs to experience mild respiratory changes after being in a kennel. This could be a result of exposure to irritants or other dogs. However, if your dog's sneezing is frequent or accompanied by other symptoms such as coughing, nasal discharge, or lethargy, it's best to consult your veterinarian to rule out any infections or other health concerns.
For peace of mind and professional advice, consider booking a consultation with Dial A Vet for personalized guidance from a veterinary professional.
