My coblet started coughing last winter about this time and I'd put it down to "change of weather"; however she just didn't stop coughing right into the spring & summer.

Vet prescribed Ventilpulmin but didn't seem to do any good tbh.

Got the vet to take a look. We scoped her (she fights sedation always like billy-ho and it wasn't easy to watch, bless her), and vet said "Equine Asthma".

As I didn't initially wish to go the "medication" route I thought to try Salt Therapy, which has helped her. Plus have had to keep up the exercise with her and not let her get too obese (good doer).

If yours is coughing into the New Year I'd be inclined to ask your vet to take a look.........
