What is Asthma in Cats and Dogs

Asthma in cats and dogs is a respiratory condition resulting from an allergic reaction. It happens when your furkid inhales an allergen, which causes the airways of their lungs to inflame and narrow. Consequently, it becomes more difficult for our furriends to breathe.

Asthma in cats will affect around 1-5% of our kitty friends. Even though asthma in dogs is more uncommon, our pups can also suffer from asthma attacks. Small and middle-aged dogs are usually at the highest risk for this condition.

Symptoms of Asthma in Dogs and Cats

Besides difficulty breathing, this recurring inflammation also results in various other symptoms:

• Frequent panting
• Lethargy
• Loss of appetite
• Blue or pale gums
• Wheezing
• Rapid or wide-mouth breathing
• Continuous coughing
• Abnormal chest expansion and contraction

If you notice these asthma signs, your little one is likely to have asthma. Please visit a vet immediately for a full body examination and a correct diagnosis. An earlier diagnosis can help your furkid get the right treatment sooner.

How NHV Remedies Support Asthma in Cats and Dogs

On top of the traditional cat and dog asthma medicine, NHV herb-based supplements like the ones in our Asthma Kit For Respiratory Relief can also assist your furkiddo on their road to recovery.

Resp-Aid™ is a vet-formulated extract designed to help furkiddos with respiratory issues. The unique blend of herbs helps support the symptoms of asthma. For example, herbs like Coltsfoot help keep coughs under control. Lobelia and Horehound may also help relieve spasms and reduce mucus accumulation.

In addition, this supplement helps soothe irritating tissues in furkids’ lungs and has powerful anti-inflammatory properties.

Since asthma is usually caused by furkids breathing in allergens, we also added our primary support for allergy, Stimmune, to the kit. This formula of herbal extracts can help balance your little one’s immune system, regulating their body’s reaction to external allergens.

On top of that, Echinacea Purpurea and Myrrh can help relieve irritation and inflammation. The supplement may also help increase the energy of your little one.

Tracheal Collapse Support for Pets 

Tracheal collapse is an acquired, non- congenital, disease. It can occur in the neck region, within the chest, where the trachea is located, or in both locations. The cartilage rings of the trachea (windpipe) are shaped like the letter C, lying on its back. A small membrane covers the top of the ring. The cartilages loses its rigidity, and the membrane stretches. For this reason, the rings may be collapsed, the windpipe flattened, and mild to severe obstruction of the airway may develop.

The cause is not well understood, but proposed theories include genetic factors such as breed, nutritional influences, neurologic problems, and degeneration of the tracheal cartilages.

Symptoms of Tracheal Collapse in Dogs and Cats

• Persistent, dry, harsh cough (“Honking” cough)
• Difficult breathing and wheezy noise
• Exercise intolerance
• Bluish tinge to the gums

A Powerful Complete Kit

The herbs present in each of these formulations have anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties and help support the symptoms of pets suffering from a collapsed trachea, like shortness of breath,  stress, discomfort, inflammation and discomfort caused by it.

Kennel cough, is predominately found in dogs and is a respiratory infection caused by Bordetella bronchiseptica, adenovirus and canine parainfluenza virus. These pathogens attack the cilia lining of the respiratory tract causing inflammation of the upper airway, resulting in a cough. This irritation makes your dog susceptible to secondary infection. Kennel cough is extremely contagious. In some cases, the situation may be complicated by secondary bacterial pneumonia. Extra care is required to prevent pneumonia and improve breathing.

When a dog has kennel cough or has been in contact with an infected animal it is just as important to support their immune system as it is to address the symptoms of the cough itself.

NHV Resp-aid is a dog kennel cough supplement that helps to sooth the upper respiratory tract, reduce inflammation, fight infection and ease congestion.
