Home remedies for a cold/congestion..

Emma's hacking pretty bad in the morning. Vet said if this turned out to be just cold, just have to ride through it...

Any good home remedies out there for bullies with colds/congestion?

Oreo had kennel cough when we got her...

and it quickly spread to everyone else. Our vet gave us a pill for coughing, I think it was called Tussigon, worked very well. You can also use plain Robitussin, doesn't work as well as the rx. A vaporizor can help. Maybe it's the brown cloud, there's a lot of human respiratory illness here too!

Guaifenesin found in some cough medicines will loosen and thin the stuff and make it easier to cough out. I just use Walmart's equate brand Tussin. We have used Benedryl to dry nasal passages so the stuff isn't running down their throats making them cough. If your bully is very small Pediacare helps with noses too. I like the cool mist humidifier running also.
