Is my dog's dry nose, sleepiness, eye discharge normal after boarding?

Question

I have a 2yr old mini dachshund and he was boarded for 7 days. We picked him up this morning and now he has a dry nose, is very sleepy and has eye discharge from both eyes. Is this normal after boarding? Pet's info: Dog | Dachshund | Male | unneutered | 2 years and 8 months old | 17 lbs

Poor Bama. Sometimes boarding can be very stressful for these little guys and now that he is home he is catching up on his sleep. This is very normal. The stress can also make them more susceptible to other conditions like upper respiratory infections. If he isn't better by tomorrow and isn't eating, then I would recommend to take him to the vet for an exam.
