My dog is coughing, not eating, and struggling to breathe for a week. Help!

Question

My dog has flu. He coughs often, and I think he has trouble breathing due to the mucus (dry) in his nose. He doesnt eat or drink water. What should I do? Please help, he's been like this since last week. Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed | Male | 1 year and 5 months old

This sign could be compatible with an upper respiratory tract inflammation/infection or eventually to a chronic rhinitis (inflammatory, allergic, infective). A clinical examination at your local veterinarian is essential to confirm these clinical suspicions and treat appropriately. Antibiotics may be needed. Please do not hesitate to contact us again on the forum or by requesting a consultation if you have any more questions or to discuss it any further.
