I'm, asking because I am considering taking Oscar to a groomer. I can't do his nails myself and he's become feisty about the bath. I was told to be careful b/c dogs can get Kennel Cough at groomers. He had a nasal spray vaccination last spring, for Kennel Cough.

I think the nasals only are good for 6 months. The injection ones are 1 year.

I had a feeling it was only good for a few months. I think he'll need it if we want to start obedience again, too! Thanks. I'll call the vet.

You're right! When Pippit went for his checkup 2 weeks ago, they looked up to see which he had last time. (I told them injection, but they had to double check) The vet tech said something like, that's what they usually give because it lasts a year.

Another thing, the injection takes effect in 10-14 days and the spray is quicker at 4 days. Good luck with the nail trims. :)
