10 Kennel Cough Symptoms
Symptom #3: Fever
Fever is a symptom of many different types of infections in the body, and on its own is not a symptom of kennel cough. However, it is one of its common symptoms. Fever occurs when the body’s defence mechanism is working to fight the infection and return the body to good health.
Because kennel cough is caused by an infection with bacteria, it can lead to fever. At the earlier stages of the infection, an infected person will normally get a low-grade fever. However, if the infection remains untreated and active, you may experience a higher fever. A low-grade fever is below 100o F, while a high-grade fever is generally between 100oF and 103o F.
