Q. Can a dog get sick from Bordetella vaccine?
A. Some dogs have mild symptoms of coughing, sneezing or discharge from the eyes or nose for a few days following the vaccine. Occasionally they persist for longer. Other side effects are likely to be extremely rare.
Q. How long does Bordetella take to work?
Both mucosal and systemic immunity are induced very quickly: typically, within three days of a single dose of IN vaccine. Rapid onset of immunity is, of course, of primary importance in a shelter setting, where animals are continuously exposed to infectious diseases.
Q. How long after Bordetella shot can I board my dog?
