I believe echinacea tablets are out on their own have had unbelievable results with them. I guess you could use them both at the same time.
Ive read they use echinacea for colds but ive also read it is used for anxiety. Has anyone used it for nervous dogs?

Echinacea and zinc are both very good immune boosters. colloidal silver is also very good 5 ml daily 1 teaspoon 10 parts per million.will not cause any harm. Do not mix with bi carb as the blue man did also he was drinking a couple off LTs a day.
Totally agree ; as a heavy/nonreactive metal, it accumulate in the body and become toxic. Much better to use something like Bissolvon to break up the mucus plus an antibiotic like Tribrissen.
If the dog is already coughing, its too late to give it CS. You need to give him tahe on a daily basis, 5ml a day, to PREVENT any nasty things happening BEFORE it happens.
Sure Noel its worthwhile using, but it really only gives protection for the bacterial form of kennel cough not complete protection against the viral form ( which mutates so easily). So dog can still get KC but usually nowhere near as severe.
If mine cough I just use Olive Leaf Extract (10ml twice a day). Just build up the immune system and hope for the best! Every time I've used antibiotics it seems to take longer for the dogs to get over it!
