Behind the scenes at daycare this weekend, I spent several hours doing a deep sanitization of all dog areas after hearing that kennel cough is making the rounds locally.
I wanted to share some information about kennel cough, what it means for businesses like mine, and why it's so important to keep a close eye on your dog when they're not feeling well.
Kennel cough is highly contagious and can spread quickly anywhere dogs gather. Common symptoms include:
• A persistent cough
• Runny nose
• Gagging or coughing up white foam
• General cold-like symptoms
Even vaccinated dogs can still get kennel cough. Vaccination helps reduce the severity of symptoms, but it does not completely prevent infection.
I also want to remind everyone that if your dog isn't feeling well—whether it's coughing, showing cold-like symptoms, or experiencing digestive issues such as diarrhea—please keep them home until they have fully recovered. This applies to daycare dogs and non-daycare dogs alike. Taking a sick dog out in public can unintentionally expose other dogs and contribute to the spread of illness.
As a daycare owner, cleaning is part of my daily routine. However, when I hear about contagious illnesses like kennel cough, I take extra precautions. That means a thorough deep-cleaning and sanitizing process that takes hours to ensure everything is properly disinfected.
One investment I've made for the daycare is an air purification system in the dog area that helps reduce airborne germs and improve overall air quality.
Thank you for helping keep our dog community healthy. If you notice any signs of illness in your dog, please keep them home, monitor their symptoms, and contact your veterinarian if needed.
