Hello all our dear clients,
Itโs about the season the annoying Canine Cough, AKA โ Kennel Coughโ , is going around dog population.
We are dedicating to ensure the cleanliness of our facility like the days we were fighting Covid. In order to make sure all our fury family members are healthy and happy we are sanitizing and disinfecting the whole facility including water bowls, toys and any other other equipment which might get in contacts with our puppies on a hourly bases. We are also installing a commercial size UV air filter which will help improve air quality in our playground, the new equipment is able to kill 99% virus and bacteria.
Unfortunately, we have had confirmed case. So we will be sending dogs home if we notice any symptoms like coughing, runny nose, white phlegm and etc. In addition, please do NOT bring your dogs to the daycare if they shows any symptoms or sign.
There are some facts you may want to know about โ Kennel Coughโ or more precisely Canine Cough, also somebody like to call it โdog fluโ.
Despite the fact that the Canine Cough is highly contagious, itโs just a common cold for dogs.
Most noticeable symptom is โhonkingโ cough, some of the dogs they might hack. Some other symptom such as runny nose, wheezing, low fever, loss of energy, very few of the cases they might experience diarrhea.
Itโs NOT necessary to bring your furry family to the vet immediately once you notice symptoms. Usually they will recover in 2-3 weeks. However, if the symptoms are getting worse and continue after 3 weeks, vet might be a good option, please feel free to contact us if you have any question.
We do required all the boys and girls MUST to have Bordetella vaccine, unfortunately, itโs not 100% effective in immunizing against kennel cough (like the Covid shot for humans)
We will also be contacting all owners who have attended our facility between Dec 12th-16th which we believe your dogs might have been in contact with confirmed cases.
We ask that your dog only returns if they have been symptom free for a period of 7 days.
Please feel to reach out us at any time if you have any questions :)
Happy Holidayโs
Thank you
-Team Wooof
