Do you mean bordetella vaccine?

If you do it is to help prevent your dog from getting 'kennel cough' ( Bordetella bronchiseptica ) which is a flu like virus that's passed from dog to dog, espicially in grooming or boarding facilities. Symptoms are usually a dry hacking cough that wont go away. Treatment is usually antibiotics.

Bordetella is found in the upper part of your body....such as the immune system

Bordetella (a coccobacillius) and distemper (a paramyxovirus) are different disease organisms so no.

The first outbreaks of Bordetella Pertussis were described in the 16th century. Bordetella Pertussis was not identified until 1906. There were over 250,000 cases of Bordetella Pertussis per year in the U.S., with up to 9,000 deaths. Bordetella Pertussis was first recognized after an epidemic in Paris in 1578. By 1976, the incidence of Bordetella Pertussis in the U.S. had decreased by 99%.

Jules Bordet (1870-1960) along with Octave Gengou discovered Bordetella Pertussis in pure culture in 1906 as the actual cause of Whooping Cough.

My dog also had the bordetella vaccine and caught it about a month later at a dog park. The vet said the vaccine protects them from certain strains of the disease but not all of them. He said they can still catch certain types of bordetella.
