IF it continues for a few more days and coughing alot during the day, then take her to the vet, but ring ahead to explain it might be kennel cough as it's very contagious.

sounds like it could be kennel cough, have you checked to see if theres anything stuck (not that it's likely) but it's always best to check Smile

My previous dog caught kennel cough after a trip back up to the rehoming kennels we got him from, my god ive never heard a cough like it Sad Anyhow we took him to vets next morning and got a lovely expensive course of antibiotics...BUT...the vet did inform us that actually most cases of kennel cough (obviously not severe cases!) will clear up by themselves and we had the choice to put him on antibiotics or not, we decided to place him on them as the poor thing (and me!!) had barely slept the night before from all the coughing. Took id say another 3 days for the cough to settle down but up to about 2 weeks for it to go completly, hope your little one gets better soon xx
