To do an LFT on my dog?

[Snufflensneeze]

My dog is really sneezy and coughing a bit. I’ve seen somewhere that the can carry Covid.
Would an LFT work? Her nose is a bit runny, I could easily sample her.

I’m intrigued!

Sounds like kennel cough which would be much, much more likely

No of course not, do not waste expensive medical tests on your fucking dog.

I would bet £100 that your dog has Kennel Cough.

Please ring your vets in the morning. It's highly, highly contagious and you'll need to keep her home for a couple of weeks.

Barking mad

If sneezing I'd probably call the vets; might be kennel cough but lots of sneezing could possibly be a grass seed up the nose x

Also intrigued.

Give it a go and see!

... and in the meantime make her wear a mask.

Seriously- if you’re worried that she’s ill speak to your vets. I’d guess pollen or something.

Are you really going to stick a cotton bud down your dogs throat good luck with that! It's more than likely allergy or as pp said kennel cough.

That sounds incredibly cruel

There seems to be a lot of kennel cough around at the moment.

My SIL's lab had it, as have a couple of dogs in my road, and my friend is taking her dog to the vet in the morning as she thinks he's got it.

Kennel cough is rife in my area at the moment apparently. Even affects vaccinated dogs according to the vet

Could be something up their nose, kennel cough, allergies. Ring the vet in the morning.

Ring the vet as it could be kennel cough or hayfever - my dog had the latter years ago and was prescribed a human antihistamine medicine.

Please don’t fall down the Covid-is-the-cause-of-every-symptom rabbit hole. And shoving those sticks up a dog’s nose and throat is just asking to be bitten, or at very least cause unnecessary distress to the animal.

I don't think your dog would appreciate swab up its nose

Your not serious? If you are don’t be so bloody daft .

Its not often I see something batty about Covid that is new but I've honestly never seen someone posting about testing their dog.
I'm sorry OP that's hilarious , but I don't think it's a good idea.

I imagine it would be quite distressing for animals

I've just done one on my goldfish, go for it you lunatic.

Please don't be so stupid, take him to the vet

Kennel cough.
Dogs do not transmit Covid. This is taking Covid hysteria too far.

If it is kennel cough, 2,of my dogs just had it and it’s everywhere at the moment.
Usually nothing to worry about and clears up without antibiotics.

Another vote for kennel cough. Keep the dog In don’t spread it to other dogs

Okaaaaaayyyyy
