The kennel cough vaccination is a live vaccine. It contains an avirulent vaccine strain of Bordetella bronchiseptica, the main bacterial cause of kennel cough. As a live vaccine, it can occasionally cause some mild coughing and sneezing for a few days following the vaccination.
Bordetella bronchiseptica is highly contagious and can be spread through close contact with infected dogs, breathing in their droplets, or exposure to contaminated items. It cause mainly Respiratory disorder.
If your dog does become infected with kennel cough, they may be more prone to catching other diseases. This means that the symptoms you first see may be totally unrelated to the primary cause – the kennel cough. The vaccine works very well and can be given to your dog via nasal or parenteral route
