Regarding the earlier question. What sort of tests are done for kennel cough or heart disease? (FYI, she's coughing a lot and I'm worried)

Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! There is not test for kennel cough. We usually base that on history and the sound of the cough. The tests for heart disease are xrays and an ultrasound, or echo, of the heart. Kisses to Bella!
