| Kennel Cough without being around other DOGS? I dont know how Kennel Cough works to be honest, and some people I notice say dogs can get colds from people while others say they cant. How does a dog get Kennel Cough if not exposed to any other animals and is Pad-Trained for the house? I am curious about this. I love Yorkie Talk!! ) Katharine

| I've heard that even if you get your dog the bordetella vaccination, they can still get kennel cough from it even though it's supposed to help against it. |

| Dogs can get upper respiratory infections from viruses. If your pup doesn't go outside and is not exposed to other animals and still gets sick, it is probably an URI. To the best of my knowledge, kennel cough is a type of URI as well.
