My sister's dog she rescued from a shelter had kennel cough when she got him, infectecte for a whole month, lost down to skeletal appearance and coughed constantly, despite constant vet car, meds and 24 hour care, struggled to breath. It was awful. I finally gave in and allowed Tibbe to get his Bordatella after seeing how long it took Tavi to recuperate once he had stopped coughing. He was skin and bones for months, yes, months after he was prnounced well, infectiion-free, had little musculature left even, his vet said and I was sure he would die anyway even though he was clear of infection. That disease is no joke and much, much more than a persistent cough. And, thankfully, Tibbe had no reaction to the shot.
