Coughing can also have many causes unrelated to the HWs such as a kennel cough, collapsing trachea, etc. As far as the severity of the damage to the heart caused by the HWs and subsequent lung issues, you would need to see a vet who can diagnose my listening to the chest, x-rays and ultrasound. I recommend Dr Merritt and Dr. Veins at 352-753-5333
