Modern thought often places fruits and vegetables at odds with each other. A food can belong to one but not both. Botanically speaking, a fruit develops from the wall of a plant's ovary and encases the seeds, so back in 1893, John Nix was right: Botanists consider tomatoes a fruit, not a vegetable.
Upper Respiratory Tract Infection in Dogs. Upper respiratory tract infections in the dog are most commonly due to bacteria and viruses. Until recently most clinicians assumed that dogs with acute onset nasal discharge, conjunctivitis, sneeze and cough had âkennel coughâ caused by Bordetella bronchiseptica.
Infectious diseases. Both cats and dogs can suffer infectious diseases that manifest â at least in part â as sneezing. In fact, most any infectious disease that affects the upper respiratory system can cause an animal to sneeze. In dogs, anything from kennel cough to distemper virus can cause sneezing.
