I have been told by my vet that the intranasal system is better and more
effective. The injection is not the same and does not provide the same
protection. While I find needles easier to deal with, a blindfold works to let
me stick stuff up their noses.

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?
