Vaccinations

EFFECTIVELY IMMEDIATELY: Shertom Kennels no longer requires the Bordetella vaccine but is still highly recommended to vaccinate your dog.

NOTE ON BORDETELLA: When getting the Bordetella for your dog, please vaccinate your pet at least 2 weeks or more prior to your dog arriving at the kennel unless your vet uses a killed Bordetella virus. If the killed virus is used, the waiting period would be 5 days or 72 hours to build up titer levels before bringing your dog into the kennel. The live virus can shed out to the other dogs in the kennel and your dog and the kennel dogs can be susceptible to kennel cough.

Please bring or send proof of vaccination.
