Butch Crabtree Webboard User Reg: 01-14-2002 Posts: 966 Loc: louisiana/texas Offline	We have a case of Kennel Cough in my kennel. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" /> The only place that we could have gotten this is from sharing a bite sleeve during training. No external Any and all suggestions on disinfectiong a Bite Sleeve wouyld be greatly appreciated. Yes, for those that will ask. Fanni has been vacinated for kennel Cough. That is proberly the reason she does not have as bad a cough as the other two. Hopefully someone has some experience with this concern. Thanks, Butch Crabtree kennel vom Avoyelles

If its yours I'd toss the cover and buy a new one. Before putting in on the sleeve, I'd wipe the sleeve inside and out (liberally) with a 10% bleach solution, let dry and repeat 2-3 times over the next week. There is no effective way to sanitize between dogs at training. Hope that is helpfull.

There are also many other bacteria that can cause similar symptoms, so getting a vaccine doesn't mean your dog is safe. I don't know how much if any cross strain protection there is with the vaccine.
