My dog is sneezing, tired, and clingy. Is it allergies or a cold?

Question

My dog doesn’t seem to be feeling well. She has been very sneezy, and her nose seems warm and dry. She is also more clingy than normal and seems tired. I’m not sure if it could be allergies, or if she could be catching a cold. She already takes a daily allergy medicine. What else should I do?

Hello, sorry to hear about Brooklyn. She could indeed have allergies despite being on allergy medications. Having sneezing is mostly consistent with some upper respiratory tract disease such as allergies or an upper respiratory tract infection. She could additionally have some other form of respiratory infection (pneumonia or bronchitis). You should see signs of coughing and nasal discharge with this. If you note persistent signs from Brooklyn, then she should be evaluated by her veterinarian. Hope this helps and best of luck.
