take it to the vet's tomorrow.

it might not be a cold, it might be something else with cold symptoms like a virus or flu??

I would take it to a vet as well, can never be too sure, and definitely if he socialises with other dogs or has just come back from kennels. Are his boosters up to date?

yes boosters are all up to date vet said a couple of weeks ago it was just a cold it cleared up but has come back again the last couple of days cant get appointment until next week

Could be allergies !!! Might be sneezing at dust or something in the house that he is allergic to!!
