I am looking for information about c3 c4 and c5. I always had my dogs done with c4 but apparantly they dont do c4 I dont know why though and got told that they only do c3 or c5 so was wondering if someone can give me info as to which one I should go and why thanks guys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stormie Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 C3 - Distemper, Hepatitis and Parvovirus C4 - The above plus one strain of Kennel Cough (parainfluenza, the viral strain) C5 - the above plus two strains of Kennel Cough (parainfluenza and Bordatella Br. (which is the bacterial strain). You cannot board a dog unless it has a C5. C4 is not enough. Kennel Cough is not a deadly disease and the vaccine is not 100%. But it can reduce the chances of infection and also the severity if infected. Perhaps give your vet a call and ask them to explain the differences to you and what they now recommend in your circumstances :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xena98 Posted August 3, 2012 Author Share Posted August 3, 2012 thnkyou guys I dont board my guy. They have never been in kennels at all. When I was talking to the vet they were saying that they werent doing the C4 at all. The vet was saying about doing the C3 and than using the nasal kenel cough. Looks like it might have to be the C5 thank you guys for your help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
