Answers:
Your dog has Kennel Cough. Kennel cough is contagious to other dogs but is very treatable with antibiotics.
Please get your dog to the vet and treated. Small dogs with Kennel Cough if left untreated can rupture their esophagus.
I had a Yorkie with it once many years ago. I am speaking not only as a Vet Tech but from personal experience.
To be safe call your vet's office today get the emergency number call and speak to a vet. Describe the details of your dogs cough and symptoms to your vet and let your vet decide whether it is an emergency or not. Good Luck. Your dog will be fine with treatment.
It might be kennel cough, its very contaigous.
Sounds like she has kennel cough. You need to take her to the vet immediately, this is highly contagious and dangerous.
The dog hotel may have been fine, but someone else may have taken a sick pup there.
Good luck, I hope your pup feels better soon.
