I'm pretty sure the vax for kennel cough can be administered both ways right?  
My vet uses the intranasal method - is there any difference in the 
effectiveness via how it's administered?  My dogs picked up some kind of crud 
at the last show we were at - I talked w/my vet and she said that there are 
lots of things that will cause "K/C", and the vax heads off the most common 
ones - she recommended they fight it off by themselves rather than be medicated 
unless the cough became too much for them, and if so, she suggested I give them 
Robitussin DM - Haylee came through with flying colors but KC is coughing a 
fair amount.  Not horrible, just has "crud" that he's coughing up.  Any 
suggestions?  And is there a difference in method of vax for K/C?
