They've all got a cold! Any tips?

About 10 days ago Dan started being a bit snotty and shorting as though congested. He was drooling a lot and his ears were hot too, so I took him to the vets and apparently he had a cold, poor lad! Anyway, he's finally on the mend and today it would seem the other three have all started with the congestion too. I've given them some Manuka honey in warm water. Any other tips for fighting off bugs? Nobody seems to have a temp or need vet attention just now and everyone is still eating fine.

well if it were mine, I would restrict exercise to little short walks and plenty rest wrapped in his blanky (if the heating was off), and keep a water bowl in the same room.

I'm sure it wont take long until they are all fine again!
I'd go to the vet if any of them get worse than he has been though - just to be sure.

Just what I would do though

yep already cut down on exercise, just looking for magical cures!!! If anyone has any old wives recipes etc.

Well, you live and learn!! I never knew that dogs could get colds....pneumonia yes, but not a cold

I do hope that they are all bouncing fit again before too long, and perhaps in the meantime you should treat them as you would men??!!! You know, lots of attention and tasty treats on demand etc. etc. with bucket loads of sympathy thrown in.

I'm with you there bitkin, i never knew that !!!
Now come on, you know that nothing is worse than man flu, according to men even child birth doesn't compare.

time and rest is the magic cure! (and some extra chicken )

I spent about £100 once to find out my cat had a cold

ha ha ha!!!! Glad it only cost me £35.00!!!!!
