Dangerous Kennel Cough Vaccine Side Effects You Need To Be Aware Of

By Jeff Kappel


Just like the common cold or flu virus in humans, kennel cough does lack a little bit of treatment. Two of the most common methods to prevent the kennel cough illness are home remedies and vaccines, which kennel cough vaccine side effects in your dog are all too common.

Kennel cough can likely be prepared to what we as humans experience as the common cold. A vaccine, just like for the flu, can never completely eradicate the colds or influenza viruses in us as humans, and the same is to be said for kennel cough vaccines. The top 5 most widely spread side effects from a kennel cough vaccine will include things like very pale gums, excessive vomiting, dangerous and scary seizures, diarrhea and your dog seeing a rapid increase in heart rate. These are all things that you should consider when it comes down to making the decision if you want to use a vaccine or a home remedy.

Before making any decisions, it is important for pet owners to consult with their veterinarians before carrying out or denying any sort of vaccination on their pets. Different guidelines have been provided by American Animal Hospital Association to ensure that veterinarians use safe vaccinations on all pets. This association advises that before providing vaccination, the dog's lifestyle and medical history must be considered. For example, placing your pet in kennel, whether public or private, can be seen as risky behaviors if you are looking to avoid kennel cough. In cases like that, your vet may lean towards administering the kennel cough vaccine for your pet.

There are other high risk behaviors or lifestyles for kennel cough that dog owners will want to take note of. They include things like dogs with a history of respiratory problems, senior dogs (older dogs), hospitalized pets, show dogs, dogs who spend large amount of time around other pets, dogs who attend different boarding facilities (doggie day care, etc), dogs who live in a kennel or confined space within their home.

Please, if your dogs fits into any of these guidelines make sure to consult with your veterinarian about whether or not they feel it's important to administer the kennel cough vaccine or using a homeopathic remedy.

A couple different options as kennel cough vaccines that are readily available from pretty much anywhere are the use of intranasal sprays and injections. You'll see more success with injections for older pets and the sprays work best for first time use or on puppies that have kennel cough. These types of vaccines prove most effective for dogs who spend vast amounts of time around other dogs. Since this type of vaccination is so inexpensive it has the ability to be mutually beneficial for treating large groups of dogs very quickly without hurting the pocket book.

One of the largest and unanswered questions that still remains is if the kennel cough vaccine side effects are worth it and if the vaccines are actually effective in riding your dog of kennel cough. If you are like most pet owners you'll pretty much do anything it takes to make sure your pet stays healthy and safe. So if you are still considering using kennel cough vaccines please consult with your vet or better yet consider some home remedies to treat kennel cough.
