Kennel Cough

Charlotte's Mom has had to quarantine her baby due to kennel cough ! According to Charlotte's doctor kennel cough is always present, and is prevalent whenever there are groups of dogs interacting.
Inoculations can last anywhere from 3 months to 1 year, depending on exposure. The more exposure, the shorter the time the dog is immune.
Luckily treatment is fairly simple, a strong course of antibiotics for 2weeks,and isolation from other dogs. BUT....this can be prevented. Please make sure your canine buddy is current with all their shots, and if you are unsure, you are better off to err on the side of caution, and have a booster.
