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.

My dog’s eye area is red and crusted below – what’s wrong and what medicine should I buy?
Crusting around the eyes and nose needs cause-specific medicine. Dry cracked crusts may be mite skin disease - get a microscope exam, then deworm and use anti-mite injections. For allergy or bacterial crusts, clean with iodine and use a lysozyme or antibiotic spray 2-3 times daily. Use an Elizabethan collar, avoid grass, feed plain food, and deworm monthly.
