They gave him the KC shot, so it just maybe like us when we get a flu shot,
we can still have symptoms. The KC shot should avoid it from turning into
pneumonia. They some times have to try a couple of different antibiotics to
see which one will work, so it is good that you will get him to the vet
early tomorrow.  It is important to give him the Pedialyte a couple of times
a day, so the KC doesn't cause dehydration. Add it to his food if you have
to. 
Poor baby......please try not to be too upset, but KC can last 3-4 weeks,
the stronger the dog the faster they get over it. Your doing everything that
you possibly can. I feel bad for you both.

Subject: [Chihuahuas] Kennel cough
 
  
Think the little one has kennel cough.  When I took him into vet his nose
was a little runny and he was a little coughy but since no fever thought it
was from the tube for the anethesia.  But this afternoon he feels very warm
to me and his nose is so stuffy he is breathing through his mouth.  Looks
like back to the vet tomorrow.  Although don't know what much else they can
do for him as he is already on antibiotics.  Last thing he needs.  Will call
them tomorrow morning..Big sigh.
