Kennel Cough

If your dog is going to be spending some time in a boarding kennels, make sure that the kennel cough vaccine is up to date.

Kennel cough is a highly contagious condition in dogs and is easily spread wherever dogs meet– out on walks, at training classes and of course in boarding kennels.

Dogs with kennel cough typically have a dry hacking cough, commonly followed by retching. In mild cases, dogs will continue to eat and be active and alert. However, in more severe cases the symptoms may progress and include lethargy, fever and lack of interest in food. Severe cases may take a few weeks to recover fully and antibiotic treatment is often required.

Kennel cough is caused by a mixture of viruses and bacterium, the most significant one being Bordetella bronchiseptica, which we vaccinate against by administering intranasal drops.

Not only does it protect your dog from this infectious disease, many kennels will not allow your dog to stay unless the vaccine is up to date.
