Is it unethical for a kennel to sell bordetella to its customer if they do not have a licensed vet on staff?

It is not unethical to sell bordetella to the customer as many customers handle vaccines themselves. It is not required in most cases, that a vet supervise the vaccine although it is always a good idea.

Can my dog get kennel cough if he's had the Bordetella vaccine?
You can offer it to your dogs, but it won't do any good. Kennel cough is the common name for an infection of the upper respiratory tract with a combination of pathogens, most commonly Bordetella bronchisepticum and Parainfluenza virus - it will take antibiotics (for the Bordetella) to resolve the infection. You can vaccinate your dog to prevent infection, this is recommended before putting your dog into kennels. However your dog does not have to be kennels to catch the infection, it can be caught from any infected dog in any environment (e.g. the park).

Is there anyone who bought a puppy from Cavalier Heaven Jordon MN and received a very sick puppy?
Yes, we received a very sick puppy as well... she had coccidia as well as an extreme strand of bordetella which led to pneumonia. Breeder was adamant that our dog did not have kennel cough but we received info from our local vet that puppies out of her kennel have a history of being bred with these conditions... not happy after thousands of dollars in vet bills, but finally our dog is healthy. Would not recommend her as a breeder.
