: I have been researching this a bit and it appears that dogs CAN get asthma or asthma-like symptoms. I haven't found much more than that and I don't think it's widely diagnosed but I'd check w/your vet on the possibility of asthma. I recently adopted a terrier mix (8 years old) who has been dx w/chronic kennel cough which I am thinking may be asthma. We see the vet tomorrow.
I have a boxer mix and I really think she has asthma as well. She wheezes and really sounds like she is having trouble breathing. Any help or advice would be appreciated.
