Puppies of ALL breeds need to be vaccinated with a combination vaccine ateight weeks of age initially, with boosters given everyfour weeks until the puppy is about sixteen weeks of age.
The vaccines are usually given as a combination vaccine, often called a 5-way vaccine, usually includes adenovirus cough and hepatitis, distemper, parainfluenza, and parvovirus. Some combination vaccines may also include leptospirosis (7-way vaccines) and/or coronavirus. Talk to your vet to see if your puppy is at risk of getting leptospirosis and coronavirus, before innoculating for those diseases.

∙ 13y agoI only give my dogs the bordetella vaccine if I am going to be showing them or boarding them in a kennel. Otherwise if they are home and not exposed to a lot of other dogs, then I do not vaccinate for bordetella. It doesn't hurt to vaccinate for bordetella though. It is just an extra expense for me.

∙ 14y agoIt depends on where you live, how old the dog is, and what their normal activities are. The basics are rabies and the distemper combo.

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.

Dog What is DLPP?
DLPP stands for Distemper, Leptospirosis, Parvovirus and Parainfluenza. A DLPP is a combination vaccine given to prevent these diseases. Parvo and Distemper especially are highly contagious. The only one you may not need to vaccinate for is leptospirosis. Dogs can get lepto from ponds, run off, ditches, stale standing water. Lepto vaccine also has a higher chance of causing an allergic reaction, so it is wise to not give it unless your dog absolutely need it. It is now known to be more prudent to vaccinate your dog every three years as opposed to the previous practise of every year.

What is the bordello dog vaccination for?
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.
What shots do I need to get for my dog before I have her boarded?
This usually depends on both the kennel and the area in which you live. However, almost all kennels require the Bordetella or "Kennel Cough" vaccine, the rabies vaccine and DHLPP and Corona vaccines. Be sure to inquire at the particular boarder in order to know how recent the vaccinations must be.
Should your dog get a bordetella shot if he is never in a kennel?
Yes. The diaseases the vaccine protects against are airborn and unless your dog lives in its own plastic bubble, chances are it will breathe outside air ONCE in its life and is succeptible to "Kennel Cough".
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 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.

How does Bordetella pertussis affect the peptide hormone response?
Bordetella pertussis is the bacterium that causes pertussis (whooping cough). It is spread from host to host only by humans and travels through the air. Nobody knows where the bacterium originated but it was first isolated by scientists in Belgium in 1906. Pertussis is highly-contagious and incidents are on the rise in North America. There is a vaccine, but it still remains the leading cause of vaccine-preventable deaths world-wide.
