Canine cough is a highly contagious infectious disease of the upper
respiratory tract of the dog. Also termed infectious canine tracheobronchitis,
this disease is caused primarily by Bordetella bronchiseptica, canine parainfluenza virus, and type 2 canine adenovirus. Like the common cold
in humans, the organisms that cause canine cough are spread through
coughing and sneezing.

Your dog can catch the disease simply by being in close proximity to an
infected dog. Training kennels, humane societies, pet shops, boarding
kennels, dog shows, veterinary hospitals, grooming salons or your local
park are just some of the places where your dog may come in contact
with this debilitating disease.
