Yes, kennel cough is highly contagious among dogs. It is caused by a combination of bacteria and viruses, with the most common being Bordetella bronchiseptica. Dogs can contract kennel cough through direct contact with infected dogs or through airborne droplets when an infected dog coughs or sneezes. It can also be spread through contaminated surfaces, such as water bowls or kennels. Symptoms typically include a persistent cough, sneezing, and nasal discharge. It's important to keep infected dogs away from other dogs to prevent the spread of the illness, and vaccination is recommended, especially for dogs that are frequently in contact with others, such as those in shelters or dog parks.
