In general if they have good ventilation and practice good hygiene, Kennel cough shouldn't be an issue.
In contrast other dogs are never vaccinated for Kennel cough and disease is not seen. CPI immunity lasts at least three years when given intransally, and CAV-2 immunity lasts a minimum of 7 years.
Two renowned vets have said they generally DO NOT recommend kennel cough vaccines unless dogs are staying in a boarding facility even then they said find a facility that doesn't require them.
I've owned other dogs for 12-15 years. | I don't need to look it up I'm in class to become a vet assistant. Never had any issues with it but have known lots of dogs who were not vaccinated and got it.
