Since I started my dog on Respiratory Aid, I’ve noticed a huge improvement in his condition. His breathing has always been labored, it was hard to listen to. But now he’s breathing easier, which has really put the life back into him!

Description

Dealing with coughs and respiratory problems in dogs

Does your dog cough persistently, or have trouble breathing? It's likely he's suffering from kennel cough or a similar respiratory ailment.

Canine Respiratory Aid is an all-natural herbal formula. It's designed to gently:

  • Help provide relief from respiratory discomfort
  • Soothe your dog's cough
  • Help reduce breathing issues in short-nosed breeds

A dog's cough is never an illness in itself. Rather, it's a symptom of some other problem, like:

  • Allergies
  • Asthma
  • Bronchitis
  • Dog collar too tight
  • Irritants like cigarette smoke
  • Infectious disease (usually kennel cough)

Whatever the cause of your dog's cough or breathing problems, Canine Respiratory Aid can help.

What is kennel cough?

Many dogs suffer from kennel cough. This canine respiratory ailment is a highly contagious condition which – as its name implies – is common among dogs that spend a lot of time in close quarters: in kennels, dog shows, grooming salons, etc. Beyond causing respiratory problems, kennel cough can weaken your dog's immune system and make him more prone to catching other canine diseases.

You can help your dog avoid catching kennel cough (or other canine respiratory diseases) by not letting him share toys, food or water with other, unknown dogs. But if he does catch kennel cough, Canine Respiratory Aid will help ease the symptoms and help him find relief.

Customer Testimonial

My bulldog, Ruff, has always had breathing problems. Then to make matters worse, he picked up Kennel Cough at the doggie daycare. It was just awful listening to him struggle. I tried your product… and I’m amazed at how well and how quickly it worked. Ruff and I are much happier now. Thanks!! Camille H, Fort Lee NJ

Customer Testimonial

"I am writing to tell you what a great product Respiratory Aid is. When my dog Hutch started to cough a little, I did not really think much of it. Days later, he was coughing up a bit of discharge and his eyes were a bit runny. I did a little bit of research online and decided that Respiratory Aid was the product I was going to try. I am so glad that I did, and so is Hutch! Since he started taking this natural product, his cough is much better and he just seems more alive. Respiratory Aid is great!" Shannon - Seattle, WA

PetWellBeing asked me for feedback on 7/5/2010. However, I waited until I'd been using the Resp-Aid for a month before giving my critique. Even though I'd witnessed overnight changes, I wanted to give the product a month trial. Sorta like the "pinch test" to know if the results I was seeing were really real, and not a figment of my hopes and imagination. I can tell you, I am amazed and thrilled with the results.

My (almost) 16 year old MinPinX has suffered from chronic bronchitis for close to 6 years. Five years ago I started her out on a bronchial dilator with only limited relief. From there I added Predensone to try and control the coughing.

Over the last five years, she's only experienced a slight decrease in her coughing spells. In fact in the last year I have had to up her meds to try and give her relief, only to drug her so bad, she wasn't the dog I once knew.

I was dealing with constant potty and feces messes and had to confine her to a small crate during the day, but she still couldn't hold it. At night she often got me up 2 and 3 times to either go potty or drinks of water. (she could no longer jump on my bed without assistance). She is now most nights sleeping all the way through the night and no longer snores. *smile*

It was also a constant battle to keep her weight down as she was so hungry all the time. I lovingly called her "my land shark", as her appetitie, due to the prednesone was ravishness. I was able to keep her thin and in good shape dispite all the challenges, but I am sure she thought I was starving her.

In the last 6 months I watched her slowly deteriate. Her behavior was zombie like and the coughing was getting worse. She slept all the time and started showing signs of predensone induced cushings disease (pot bellied, muscle weakness, hair loss, shakes, stomach upset, just to name a few).

Now that she has been on the Resp-Aid for 1 month the results are so amazing I want to tell everyone about it! Also I am giving her the Supra-glan for the cushings disease. She is like my old spunky puppy again. The coughing is almost non-existant! Hard to believe I am getting better results on Resp-Aid then I EVER got on prednesone and NO nasty side effects.

Another interesting positive side effect seems to be the clearing up of eye discharge. I had to daily wipe her eyes as they watered all the time, and if I didn't keep them wiped she'd get crusties on her nose below her eyes. That has also totally cleared up.. and now she seems to have just your normal eye tearing with very little, if any crusties.

All I can say is I so wished I'd found this product years ago... If you're at all hesistant, let me tell you, I was not much of a believer in homepathic remedies. I always wondered if it was simply smoke and mirrors and fish oil at a rip- off price... But PetWellBeing has made a total believer out of me.. and one last benefit. Her meds from the Vet were costing me over 40 dollars a month and as far as I can figure her new meds will probably be costing about $15.00/month. Now you can't beat that, a product that works wonders and doesn't cost an arm and leg! Thank you PetWellBeing!

Read all the good reviews and decided to try it. I have used it twice a day for over a week and my dog is still suffering with a cough. This has had no effect at all. I didn't think it would be a cure but I was hoping it would provide relief but it hasn't. This has been a complete waste of money. Very expensive to try out and not work.

    Comments about NHV Respiratory Aid - Dog Cough Medicine:

    Our black Pomeranian was diagnosed with a collapsed trachea and Congenital Heart Failure 5 years ago. He coughs often. I don't think he would get much relief without this product. We pray for him daily and thank God he is still with us. This does help him breath much better and noticeably less coughing. At least he can get some rest. He takes the drops on his ground turkey every meal. He is off all junk food including kibble. It's working! Good Luck to you all.

      Comments about NHV Respiratory Aid - Dog Cough Medicine:

      My 12 year old Chihuahua has suffered with a chronic cough for many months. I have taken her to the vet countless times. We tried 3 series of antibiotics, narcotic cough syrup and even a round of steroids. The cough improved for a day or two and then it returned. I tried another herbal preparation from another company. The dosage prescribed was too strong and my dog was like a zombie. We had to reduce the dosage and saw no improvement in her cough. On several occasions our family discussed euthanasia rather than continue to have our baby struggle. We found Respiratory Aid through a google search. Her cough improved after about a week and after 4 weeks, she rarely coughs. I hate to be over dramatic, but this product saved our precious little dog's life. We are extremely grateful to petwellbeing.com.

        Comments about NHV Respiratory Aid - Dog Cough Medicine:

        My dog was coughing all day and night. I searched for herbal remedies because my dog was too old and sick for most drugs and procedures. We found this, and within a couple of days the cough improved and By the end of the week, she was well. Then I started her on the vitamins. I feel these products made her strong enough to receive major surgery 2 weeks ago (she had her uterus removed) which a dog of 17 years normally could not do. She is already looking 100% better. She runs. She wags. Seriously, this stuff is amazing. They will live long, and be well.

          My 12 year old pug often has coughing fits due to a collapsed tracchea. The vet prescribed a cough suppressant but Resp-Aid works better! I give it to her plain or mixed in with yogurt and she loves it. I would highly recommend this product!

            We purchased this medicine to treat a chronic cough in our older shitzu. She had a persistent cough and was tested for everything by the vet. The only thing we came up with was allergies and collapsed trachea. We had been giving her antibiotics and a cough suppressant, which were providing some relief. We gave her this medicine and it has really helped a lot! It settles her cough and seems to help her breathe more easily. We have not had to give her antibiotics, which can be hard on the system, and we have cut way back on her cough suppressant. I showed it to my vet and he said it wouldn't interfere with meds she was taking and that if it worked he would be suggesting it to several other patients with the same problems. Thank you so much for this product!

                    Comments about NHV Respiratory Aid - Dog Cough Medicine:

                    My dog is 14 and a half years old and has been diagnosed with chronic bronchitis and enlarged heart and liver with a mass on his liver. I had him on conventional heart medicine (enalipril) and we started him on cough tabs for dogs, but they didn't seem to help so our Vet recommended we try hydrocodone which helped his cough, but made him nauseas. Then we found out they put acetaminaphen in it, which dogs aren't supposed to have. Our Vet tried to find it without that, but couldn't so we decided he needed to go off of it as soon as possible. We decided to try prednisone since his white blood count had come down, it was very high before. We put him on the prednisone and I thought he was going to die. He layed down in the floor and wouldn't move. We cut the prednisone several times and finally he started to have more energy, but as some others have said, he panted constantly. Very hard, very fast and loud panting, not normal, and ravenous all the time. If we cut it enough for the panting to be tolerable, he coughed all the time again. I prayed to God for help and He led me to Petwellbeing.com. I showed my Vet the respiratory aid and he said it sounded good and so we took him off prednisone and put him on resp. aid. His tongue had been turning blue/purple from lack of oxygen and now very rarely does that. The excessive panting and hunger has stopped. I put him on hearty heart also and his coughing has improved, but is not gone. I didn't think he would still be here by summer and now fall is starting and he is still with us and has much better quality of life and feels better. He even wants to play now and then. I believe had I left him on prednisone he would not be with us now. I thank God and Petwellbeing for having my baby with me awhile longer. Please try this product. Sorry this was so long, but I would highly recommend this product.

                      I adopted a young terrrior pound-hound who developed a persistent cough following spaying. We tried antibiotics for tracheitis; then steroids and antihistimines for allergies; then Tagement for reflux. Finally we had a barium swallow and found a deep-seated respiratory restriction. Then we tried Tramadol and an injection for parasites. Our next avenue would have been BAL with cultures, etc. which would have been very expensive. I found NHV on-line and gave it a try. She still has a slight, occasional cough but essentially has cleared up. I have recommended this product to my vet. I will continue to use, just a few drops on her food twice a day.

                        My 17 year old Pom/Chi developed a bad cough that went on day and night for a week. The situation was serious, so I got on-line searching for help. I saw the Respiratory Aide, and tried to find it on the shelves all over town. Nothing like it exists anywhere else, and no Vet will recommend anything besides drugs, so I ordered it and it worked. Within two or three days I saw improvement and now it's completely cleared up. She's been on it for two weeks and will remain on it for the rest of her life. It can't hurt her because it's not medication. It's 100% herbal. It should be available everywhere, because animals are needlessly suffering. I'm going to take it to the vets office, and I'm going to take it to my local humane society, and tell everyone I know. Then I'm going to see what else you have for my girl...

                          I give this cough medicine to Wilma after breakfast and supper. She actually likes it.
                          I wish I had found this product sooner. It is great stuff. I am calling the makers of this product to see if it is safe for adults to take.
                          I have had my dog Wilma (Boston terrier 11 yrs old) on Respiratory Aid for only ONE week and have seen her improve 95%. After taking her to the Vet.and having exrays,blood work, prescription medicine and a bill totaling over $500.00 dollars. She got a little better with the meds from the Vet.but after a about a week she was right back coughing and hacking with dificulty breathing.
                          My hats off to the makers of this product. If you have a pet with a cough and breathing problems do not hesitate to try this product..

                            I am an animal lover of all kinds since i was a small child.Their health and to keep them here as long as possible in no pain is the greatest goal.I lost two of my dogs in four days last summer.Due to the vets lack of misjudgement,response,and time.I have one older yorkshire terrier that is 16.He was born in a puppymill,with a bad walk,and very bad allergies and cough.I have tried everything possible to help him.He is not in pain at all,but he needed something for his cough.I found PETWELLBEING under Natural Remedies For Canines.So easy to find exactly what i needed.I could not believe it.They explain about the product under the picture,how to use it,the ratings of others that have used it and the outcome.I recieved it quickly and started my buddy on it asap.Within 1 week i could see a great difference in his cough and he was resting better and moving around more.How greatful i am to have found PETWELLBEING.My little buddy thanks them to! I will wihout a doubt order more products for him and myself.They have everything for animals and humans.If you really love your pet,and need help please visit the website and see for youself what they offer and they also will talk to you live or on live chat.This product i use is so very easy to give my dog.Thank You PETWELLBEING for caring,and the dedication.Most Grateful.E.B.

                              I love this product. It works! My 12 year old Pomeranian was diagnosed with a collapsing trachea. We were sent home without any treatment to just sit around and wait until my dog's trachea collapsed enough to start surgery. That wasn't good enough for me, so I ordered Respiratory Aid since everything I buy from Pet Well Being works so well on my dogs. Since my dog has been on this product she no longer coughs or gags. I don't have to take her back to the vet for surgery, saving my pets trachea, the pain of surgery and recovery, time and tons of money.
                              So far, between the both of them, I have my dog's on Respiratory Aid, Stimmune, Milk Thistle, Maris, and Mouth Drops for Bad Breath and I am so pleased with each supplement because they all work.

                                Our 14 year old Beagle Sheba developed a chronic cough several months ago and it was just getting worse. We took her to a specialist who said she has chronic bronchitis and fluid in her lungs. The doctor gave us steroids which made the poor dog incontinent (doggy diapers are useless) and inhalers which were hard to administer but nothing helped, neither she nor I were getting any sleep.

                                I found this product and it is a God send, I highly recommend this product to others, Sheba sleeps through the night with no coughing, she isn't incontinent any more. There are days when she doesn't cough at all, everybody is happy.

                                Thank you PetWellbeing for giving all of us a normal life again.

                                  Had used vet medications for 3 weeks with no relief at all. After using NHV day 1 was less coughing (we actually got to sleep entire night); after day 2 less coughing and much less severe; after day 3 cough almost gone; after day 4 cough totally gone and did not return.

                                    I add 11 drops of the Respiratory Add to our 15 year old pug's food 2x/day. He has a fully involved collapsed trachea, and this product has greatly diminished his coughing! It also seems to have a calming effect on him, which has also been very helpful; since being excited usually triggers his cough. We have noticed no side effects, unlike other products we have tried. I am extremely pleased with this product!

                                      Comments about NHV Respiratory Aid - Dog Cough Medicine:

                                      PetWellBeing asked me for feedback on 7/5/2010. However, I waited until I'd been using the Resp-Aid for a month before giving my critique. Even though I'd witnessed overnight changes, I wanted to give the product a month trial. Sorta like the "pinch test" to know if the results I was seeing were really real, and not a figment of my hopes and imagination. I can tell you, I am amazed and thrilled with the results.

                                      My (almost) 16 year old MinPinX has suffered from chronic bronchitis for close to 6 years. Five years ago I started her out on a bronchial dilator with only limited relief. From there I added Predensone to try and control the coughing.

                                      Over the last five years, she's only experienced a slight decrease in her coughing spells. In fact in the last year I have had to up her meds to try and give her relief, only to drug her so bad, she wasn't the dog I once knew.

                                      I was dealing with constant potty and feces messes and had to confine her to a small crate during the day, but she still couldn't hold it. At night she often got me up 2 and 3 times to either go potty or drinks of water. (she could no longer jump on my bed without assistance). She is now most nights sleeping all the way through the night and no longer snores. *smile*

                                      It was also a constant battle to keep her weight down as she was so hungry all the time. I lovingly called her "my land shark", as her appetitie, due to the prednesone was ravishness. I was able to keep her thin and in good shape dispite all the challenges, but I am sure she thought I was starving her.

                                      In the last 6 months I watched her slowly deteriate. Her behavior was zombie like and the coughing was getting worse. She slept all the time and started showing signs of predensone induced cushings disease (pot bellied, muscle weakness, hair loss, shakes, stomach upset, just to name a few).

                                      Now that she has been on the Resp-Aid for 1 month the results are so amazing I want to tell everyone about it! Also I am giving her the Supra-glan for the cushings disease. She is like my old spunky puppy again. The coughing is almost non-existant! Hard to believe I am getting better results on Resp-Aid then I EVER got on prednesone and NO nasty side effects.

                                      Another interesting positive side effect seems to be the clearing up of eye discharge. I had to daily wipe her eyes as they watered all the time, and if I didn't keep them wiped she'd get crusties on her nose below her eyes. That has also totally cleared up.. and now she seems to have just your normal eye tearing with very little, if any crusties.

                                      All I can say is I so wished I'd found this product years ago... If you're at all hesistant, let me tell you, I was not much of a believer in homepathic remedies. I always wondered if it was simply smoke and mirrors and fish oil at a rip- off price... But PetWellBeing has made a total believer out of me.. and one last benefit. Her meds from the Vet were costing me over 40 dollars a month and as far as I can figure her new meds will probably be costing about $15.00/month. Now you can't beat that, a product that works wonders and doesn't cost an arm and leg! Thank you PetWellBeing!

                                        Comments about NHV Respiratory Aid - Dog Cough Medicine:

                                        My little Yorky of 7 1/2 years old developed a partially collapsed trachea and was coughing horribly! Per the vet, I gave her theophylline and amytriptiline. All she did was sleep, and she still coughed, the vet suggested pediatric cough syrup which I tried but it is loaded with flavorings and corn syrup. So, I started my search online and found this. It is a GODSEND! I tasted it myself to see how bad it was and was surprised that it has a pleasant taste. My Savannah likes it and doesn't give me any problem. She is now off the amitryptiline, on just 1/4 tab. of theophylline once or twice a day, and takes this natural cough aid twice a day per the directions. She is her old self again!

                                            Respiratory Aid is an herbal formula with anti-inflammatory properties to help alleviate coughs and to soothe the irritated tissues caused by coughing spasms. It also helps to promote the circulation of blood within the respiratory/lung system to allow for blood to flow freely. The only cautionary note for Respiratory Aid is that it should not be used in conjunction with digoxin-based medications (which are usually for treating congestive heart failure). I'd recommend consulting with your veterinarian to see if Enapril is categorized as digoxin-based prior to administering the Respiratory Aid formula.
