I don't give bordetella. Layla had the shot last year- went and got groomed ... and eneded up with kennel cough. I have read that the kennel cough vaccine is similar to the flu shot- you can still GET the flu... so to me it's not worth it... i groom her myself, we don't go to dog parks and she goes to an in-home sitter.
HMM I always knew that getting the flu shot didn't totally prevent you. I refuse to get it myself after my mom got it and then she was sick with the flu for the whole month.

Well then I'll skip on the bordetella and talk to my vet about giving the shots separately.

Thank you for the info
