My Yorkie has a stuffy nose and cough. What can I give him for relief?

Question

My three year old Yorkie has nasal congestion and coughs every once in a while what can I give him?

Angel Alvarado, LVT · Accepted Answer

Do not give him any medications without the advice of your veterinarian. Legally, we are prohibited from providing recommendations or doses for medications, even OTC ones, in the absence of a physical exam and a veterinarian-patient-client relationship. Have him examined by your vet to diagnose the underlying cause. Chest xrays be indicated. In the meantime, you can run a hot shower and place your dog in the bathroom (NOT in the shower) for 10-15 minutes. The steam should help loosen up any congestion.
