(according to local laws). If traveling out of state, some states may require
yearly booster.
Bordetella (kennel cough):
Puppies can be vaccinated as early as 9 weeks. Then their first booster
after 30 days and then a booster every 6 months. Adults should get a booster
every 6 months.

highly recommended for all dogs, especially those being boarded or groomed.

occurs in cats.
