What is Kennel Cough?
Parainfluenza and Bordetella are more commonly known as kennel cough. Canine Parainfluenza Virus (CPIV) is a highly contagious respiratory virus that can cause illness in dogs. This is loosely called kennel cough, but can consist of two problems – one being canine Influenza and the other being caused by a bacterial infection known as Bordetella.
They are both highly contagious and can cause the same symptoms. Most boarding facilities will require that your dog is fully vaccinated for both Parainfluenza and Bordetella before their stay. Kennel cough causes inflammation in the dog’s windpipe, leading to coughing and discomfort. Symptoms include continuous coughing and hacking, alongside a possible water nasal discharge. Although many times kennel cough is not severe, if left untreated it can become a serious condition that may lead to fever and even pneumonia.
It’s important to always keep your vaccinations up-to-date and to seek veterinary treatment immediately if you suspect your dog is suffering from kennel cough.
