Kennel cough facts:
Kennel cough is a respiratory infection somewhat like the flu that humans get. It is an airborne virus that leaves your pet vulnerable anytime that you visit us, your Vet, the dog park, etc. As hard as we screen, we have no control over airborne viruses & is beyond our control!

There are many different strains of this virus, so if you are not sure, please consult with your vet.

If your pet contracts Kennel cough, the symptoms usually are: Coughing, low-grade fever & diarrhea. Treatment is a course of anti-biotics. We thank you for your understanding & support.
