Dog lost voice.

he best luck I've had is PREDNISONE. 5MG TABLET
10 days 1 tablet each day.
5 days 1/2 tablet each day.
5 days 1/4 tablet each day.
Always do the complete treatment, even if their voice improves before you finish the 20 day treatment.
You usually can get it from a vet. It is a steroid, not very expensive.
I have had good luck with it.

Seems like lots of people looking for help for barked out dogs. Thought I would repost this. Best luck I have had for hounds that become hoarse. It's cheap, but you can only get it from a vet. Dog must be kept quiet, and you have to do the whole treatment before hunting dog. Good luck

Dog loses voice

I put a shocking bark collar, on the dog, to keep him from barking, i don't leave it on him, just enough to shut him up. Then i give 1 and 1/2 cc's of LA-200, and a squirt of mustard, down the throat twice a day, for two weeks. The sooner you do this, the faster you will get all of his voice back, if it has been a while, you will get some of his voice back, maybe not all. If you have any of the old anti-botic, Tettracycline, it will work instead of LA-200.
