Hi Everybun!
Just a little concerned hope someone can help. I just got a puppy and had her to the vet today because she began coughing. It turns out she has Kennel cough AKA Bordetellosis. I was just looking up info about kennel cough to see how long it was going to take her to get well and got concerned because it said it can be transfered to rabbits too!!! Should I move Wrigley, right now he is in the dinning room and the puppy has been blocked off in the family room, they have the kitchen between them, is this far enough away from her or should I move Wrigley into the bedroom until she is well again? Has anyone ever heard of a dog giving it to a rabbit??? How common is this? I'm very concerned because it says it can go into Pasteurella/snuffles in rabbits, I don't need for Wrigley to get sick now!!!
I know it said that it is spread mostly in the air, I'm just concerned that I didn't pass it to Wrigley after playing with or holding the puppy and then going and holding Wrigley, can I transfer it to him this way too??
I'm a nervous Wreck now any advice or info would be appreciated!!
Thanks
