difference

Question
I have two five year old pitbulls and they are staying in a kennel right now. Well i
take them out to walk them everyday but today the vet called and told me they
have bronchitis,,,but i went to see them and they have a really horrible cough.
What is the difference between kennel cough and bronchitis in dogs?

Answer
The symptoms are fairly similar, but kennel cough is highly contagious to other dogs, while bronchitis is more of an individual issue... an infection of the bronchial tubes. Kennel cough can turn into a bronchial infection... or even pneumonia.
