Well I spent the cold weekend up in mason hunting and now my mac dog has a cough. He will bark then cough. I know it's not heart worms. Any ideas? He is eating normal, and still acts normal other then the cough. Any ideas/input woul be greatly appreciated.

Probably just the sniffles. Give him a round of antibiotics.

If your dog was around any turkey or chicken poop they can get a infection in there lungs easy to beat with antibiotic will seem just like kennel cough but kennel cough would b my first guess

It's seems to be significantly better. But there is still a slight cough occasionally. I will keep up antibiotics. Seems to be the only treatment for whatever it is. There are a lot of turkeys on the place, I have cedar shaving in his house. I changed it out this morning and sprayed everything with stall cleaner(bleach and water) I've never felt with kennel cough before.

Some dogs have been known to have a sensitivity to cedar chips/dust, and even pine. That could be a possibility as well.
