| is it just me? is it just me???? or has anyone else noticed A LOT of cases of kennel cough??? MY toby had it when he was a pup, but before that i have NEVER had a dog with kennel cough (and we have had plenty) is it the breed that is more suceptible to kennel cough or is it just getting transmitted from dog to dog more these days? |

| I'm with you!! Growing up we always had dogs and I never remember kennel cough. My 4 yr old Eskie had it (a really bad case of it!) when we got her, and little Dublin had it too... What's up with that?

| I have heard to several cases of Yorkies getting keenel cough from the vaccine Maybe it has to do with the fact that its an intranasal vaccine now? Or it could be that Yorkies ar so small and its easier for them to contract from the vaccine. All of the cases I have heard of have been from the vaccine.
