Some people do say that Bordetella is not necessary, because if you dog does get Kennel Caugh it is easily treatable with antibiotics. I know that at Harley's daycare and his groomers it is required, but I don't think it is required everywhere so I would check with your groomer for his/her regulations about this particular shot. I would think though that if there were an infected dog where you have your dogs nails clipped there would be a chance of catching it even if you are only there for a few minutes.
