Important information:
All animals arriving at the kennels for boarding must have a current vaccination certificate. This is to protect your pet as well as others. Your vet will explain these vaccinations to you but generally it is an initial course of two injections followed by a yearly booster. Modern vaccines give immunity against diseases such as Parvovirus, Distemper, Hepatitis, Leptospirosis (DHL) in dogs, and against Flu and Enteritis.
The term 'Kennel Cough' is unfair and implies that the disease comes from Kennels, but dogs are just as likely to be infected at shows and training classes even at the park, beach or woodlands. Dogs become infected from other coughing dogs, by breathing in infected airborne particles in a manner similar to the way human colds or influenza are spread. At the moment the only effective way to protect against kennel cough caused by Bordetella Bronchiseptica, (the major cause of Infectious Bronchitis), is Intrac or Nobivac
vaccination. Vaccination against kennel cough is a mandatory requirement for boarding at the Kennels. There are vaccines available which protect against some of the other causes of Kennel Cough. For further advice about vaccinations please consult your veterinary surgeon.
