I called my vet and was told if we were having our dog groomed (yes) going to a dog park (no) or boarding him (yes), we should have him vaccinated. They also said it was coming up into this area. Better safe than sorry. Our guy is almost 10 and might not be as able to fight the flu as easily as a younger dog. Apparently the vaccination will not prevent dogs from getting the flu, but if they do it would be a much milder case.

Booster shot coming up.
