A Shetland Sheepdog? Cough? Some weird condition. I have never heard a dog cough at all.

You should break into the house and kidnap the puppy. Take the law into your own hands! Just make sure you have good enough lawyers for when you get sued...

Call (or have your parents call, if you're a minor) your local humane society or SPCA and let them investigate.

Re: I feel sorry for a dog I know...

How old is the dog? How long is it in the kennel for each day? Does it have food and water? Do you talk to the owners?
If it's in serious condition bring it up to the owners and see if you can convince then to take the dog to a vet. If it comes down to it and the dog seems to be starving and in bad condition then theres nothing more that you can do but call SPCA and hope that they show up.

Re: I feel sorry for a dog I know...

I agree with Lorena. Definatley call the local humane socitiey or animal control or what ever it is called by you.

That poor doggie. Your call can really make a difference. And if your wrong and the doggie is really ok at least you will know and not have to worry no harm done. I called once on someone then called back a day or 2 later to see what they found.

Seriously, Call animal control, this should be investigated and the owners penalized.

Re: I feel sorry for a dog I know...

I'm pretty sure ilovemychihuahua didn't mean that as a bad thing. The fact that you called them concerned about the dogs wellbeing and then they state that they are going to the vet tommarow was a little quick. Unless they called the vet ealier before today I don't think they could get something that last minute onless it was an emergency...maybe I'm wrong?
If they're taking care of the coughing then that's great! The fact they keep their dog in a kennil the whole day is still VERY sad and I don't think that's right but atleast they're doing something for the dog.
