D.  Fido Alert:  This is a warning to all dog owners. There are reports of many dogs in town with Kennel Cough. If your dog is coughing or hacking like he has something in his throat, this could be the culprit.  Our advise is to keep your dogs away from public places where other dogs roam, for a while until this settles down. It is very contagious but can be cured with antibiotics. Lynda Tracewell, ALMA Team
