CANINE RESPIRATORY ILLNESS DISCLOSURE REMINDER & REFRESHER 

A FRIENDLY REMINDER THAT THERE IS ALWAYS A GENERAL LIABILITY RISK OF POTENTIAL CANINE RESPIRATORY ILLNESS & INFECTION WHEN USING ANY DOG BOARDING & DOGGIE DAY CARE SERVICES. OFFICIAL DISCLOSURE IS OUTLINED IN DETAIL IN YOUR CLIENT AGREEMENT IN ADDITION IF NEEDED.

YOUR PUP CAN STILL CONTRACT KENNEL COUGH EVEN IF VACCINATED WITH A CURRENT BORDETELLA VACCINE. THERE IS A 2-14 DAY INCUBATION PERIOD BEFORE SYMPTOMS MAY EVEN START TO SHOW. HENCE, THE 15 DAY WAIT PERIOD IMPLEMENTED. THERE IS AN INDUSTRY STANDARD OF A 14 DAY WAIT PERIOD AFTER BORDETELLA (KENNEL COUGH) VACCINATION DUE TO POTENTIAL VIRUS SHEDDING.

YOUR PUP CAN STILL CONTRACT ANY GENERAL CANINE RESPIRATORY ILLNESS. CANINE INFLUENZA VACCINATION ALSO ONLY PROTECTS YOUR PUP AGAINST H3N8 & H3N2. BORDETELLA VACCINATION DOES NOT PROTECT YOUR PUP FROM ALL STRAINS OF KENNEL COUGH BUT IT IS STILL RECOMMENDED TO VACCINATE FOR BORDETELLA (KENNEL COUGH). SYMPTOMS ARE USUALLY MILDER & MINOR IF VACCINATED. THERE IS NO SPECIFIC INDIVIDUAL VETERINARY DIAGNOSTIC TESTING FOR KENNEL COUGH & GENERAL CANINE RESPIRATORY INFECTIONS. TYPICALLY A VET WILL TREAT FOR KENNEL COUGH &/OR GENERAL RESPIRATORY INFECTION REGARDLESS & TO BE ON THE SAFE SIDE. GENERAL RESPIRATORY INFECTION TREATMENT IS TYPICALLY 10 DAYS OF DOXYCYCLINE (TO PREVENT FUTURE MORE SERIOUS PNEUMONIA) & GENERIC COUGH TAB (TO PREVENT FURTHER EXPOSURE, SPREAD & FOR COMFORT TO RELIEVE COUGHING SYMPTOMS) ORAL MEDICATION PRESCRIBED BY A VET IN ADDITION TO A 10-14 DAY QUARANTINE PERIOD OF THE PET. MULTIPLE PET HOUSEHOLDS WILL LIKELY NEED TO TREAT ALL HOUSEHOLD PETS. AS IT IS LIKELY OTHER HOUSEHOLD PETS MAY HAVE HAD EXPOSURE TO &/OR CONTRACT THE ILLNESS DESPITE SYMPTOMS NOT APPEARING OR PRESENTING YET. 

DISCLAIMER • Maggie McSpadden is not a vet tech nor veterinarian. The information provided is for educational purposes. Always seek the advice & recommendations of your veterinarian for any veterinary or medical care regarding your pet(s).

CANINE RESPIRATORY INFECTIONS ARE EASILY SPREAD & IMPOSSIBLE TO PREVENT COMPLETELY. REGARDLESS OF THE STRICT PRECAUTIONARY & PREVENTATIVE MEASURES IMPLEMENTED AND REGARDLESS OF THE THOROUGH SANITIZATION & DISINFECTANT PROCEDURES IN EFFECT. UNFORTUNATELY, IT ONLY TAKES ONE SINGLE COUGH ONCE & ONE SINGLE DROPLET IN THE AIR.

SYMPTOMS INCLUDE BUT MAY NOT BE LIMITED TO: COUGHING (WET OR DRY & CONSISTENT OR INTERMITTENT), SNEEZING, WATERY NOSE, HACKING, HONKING, DIFFICULTY OR LABORED BREATHING, LETHARGY, SUDDEN CHANGE IN NORMAL MOOD, BEHAVIOR &/OR DECREASED APPETITE. SOMETIMES MILDER CASES MAY BE MISTAKEN FOR SEASONAL OR ENVIRONMENTAL ALLERGIES BY PET OWNER.

IF YOUR PET IS SHOWING ANY SIGNS OR SYMPTOMS OF ILLNESS, REGARDLESS HOW MILD, PLEASE INFORM MAGGIE PRIOR TO YOUR ARRIVAL TO SERVICE. SICK OR ILL PETS, ESPECIALLY ANY CONTAGIOUS ILLNESS, ARE GROUNDS FOR SERVICE CANCELLATION. IMMEDIATE PICK UP, DEPARTURE & DISMISSAL.

PUPPIES UNDER 1 YEAR:
Boosters for puppies may differ for their first year. Puppies typically are given multiple boosters of each vaccine with certain time intervals in between each booster vaccination. Puppies typically should have all their vaccinations by 5-6 months of age for the 3 vaccinations required by Maggie’s Doggie Care. Rabies vaccination is given as a 1 year rabies vaccination for puppies under 1 year, once they are 5 months of age or older. After the initial first 1 year rabies vaccine has expired, they can then receive the 3 year rabies vaccine afterwards moving forward in the future. 3 year rabies vaccinations typically are not given to puppies under 1 year old. 3 year rabies vaccinations typically are not given to a canine that has never received any rabies vaccination in the past (first rabies vaccination is a 1 year rabies vaccination). Puppies must be minimum of 15-16 weeks old in order to receive a rabies vaccination (1 year rabies vaccine). Rabies vaccination is typically the only vaccination required by any municipal or township in NJ for pet (dog & cat) licensing. The county holds multiple free rabies vaccine clinics throughout the year by the county at each municipality on different scheduled dates. As a county resident, you are welcome to use the free rabies clinic that is held in any municipality, if not using the free rabies clinic in your own town that you reside in, as long as you have proof of being a resident in the county (identification or municipality past pet license, etc.). Review the county website for the most recent annual free rabies clinic schedule. Verification prior is recommended due to pandemic related cancellations or changes.
