My French Bulldog's kennel cough is worse. Should I see a vet?

Question

My french bulldog is being treated for kennel cough for the past 4 days (give or take) we've been giving her an antibiotic, but the last two nights her coughing fits are getting worse. This morning she coughed up a lot of phlegm. I'm wondering if this is sign she's getting better or worse and whether or not I need to take her to the vet today.

I would get her to the vet today. This sounds like she is getting worse and not better. Often times kennel cough can progress into a pneumonia and I would be worried that this could be happening with her. Hope this helps. Best wishes.
