What to Do When Your Dog Has a Cold and Cough
Caring for a dog is like raising a child - feeding, shelter, and sickness all fall to you, and the common cold is near the top of the list. A dog with a cold looks defeated: ears down, eyes shut, motionless in the bed, with a rising temperature (adult dogs run below 39.2C, puppies 38-39C; above 39C means fever). It also coughs, has a runny nose, red conjunctiva, poor appetite, and shivers from the cold. Do not bathe a sick or coughing puppy - bathing strips a protective layer and lowers immunity. Keep the sleeping area warm with a blanket or hot-water bottle, dress the dog for walks, and keep the bed out of drafts. For the cough and runny nose, a half-packet of children's cold granules three times a day for about a week helps; dog-specific supplements are an option too. Feed nutritious food like beef and vegetables to build resistance, and catch illness early.

What happens if a dog’s nose isn’t black?
A non-black nose may be genetic (normal) or age-related (slower metabolism, less pigment, no action needed). But poor nutrition can also fade it; such dogs are thin and weak—supplement or check for gut, parasite, or endocrine disease.
