Kennel Cough

Did you know, Vira-Care & Bacta-Care #disinfectant are tested and effective against the highly contagious Kennel Cough! It’s a respiratory infection caused by a number of bacteria – Bordetella bronchiseptica, and viruses like canine adenovirus, canine distemper and canine influenza. The infectious bronchitis is also known as canine infectious tracheobronchitis and the dogs have a hacking cough. Some might also have runny noses, sneezing and discharge in their eyes!

Kennel Cough is an airborne pathogen and extremely contagious. It can spread through the kennels very quickly and is also passed on by sharing toys, food / drink bowls and other items. Prevention is better than cure! Some dogs can have no symptoms, and some can carry the infection for months. There are many strains of kennel cough, just like we have with the common cold!
