I tend to agree with this shelteez! Unless its an emergency most things I can take care of for my animals, without going to a vet... We had kennel cough run thru here last summer/fall.. was picked up at the shows and brought back here... that was lots of fun!... most of my own dogs didn't actually get it, I think only one of mine got a mild case... but it ran thru a few other dogs..
