kennel cough :nursing: I have a 15 month old and he has just had his booster vaccines,my vet recommended the kennel cough vaccine (intranasal) as i do board a bit in the summer and also use the groomer regularly..i went ahead with the vaccine and Harley has been sneezing on and off since,which i understand is normal. My question is, is this vaccine really necessary and are there any harmful side effects. |
I guess the worse side effect would be dogs tend to come down with the illness after receiving the nasal vaccine. Personally I don't get bordatello vaccines because they are largely ineffective. Dogs get the illness even after being vaccinated because there are many strains of the virus. |

They can get the disease with or without the vacccine depending on the strains they were vaccinated for. They can also get it from the vaccine... |
bordetella is fine. it usually lasts for 6 months, and it takes a full 24 hours to get in your dogs system, if dont intranasally. I don't get my dogs that vaccine unless they are being groomed, doggie day care, boarding, or going on an airplane! |
