My puppy keeps coughing every morning. Should I take her to the vet?

Question

Patty keeps coughing. She wouldn't for too long just a few seconds, or maybe a minute. It almost sounds like she's catching a cold. She does this in the mornings for the first few hours. I'm thinking about taking her to her vet. Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed | Female | spayed | 8 months and 28 days old | 7 lbs

She likely has an upper respiratory infection. This is common in puppies. A vet visit is best for her. They will likely put her on antibiotics for a short while and this should resolve the issue. Best wishes with your pet Patty. Take care!
