I'm not a vet. But we had a epileptic dog and the epi websites recommended to not do it if they weren't kenneled. Then with any shot you have to weigh off the risk if they get the disease. Kennel cough rarely if ever kills and is treated with a round of anti biotics.
Heart worm medicine is not one you would not give as there are fleas everywhere and heart worm treatment can kill a healthy dog.
BTW. Through careful administration of meds, better food, eliminating bugs spray and cleaners from our house our epi dog went from 2-3 seizures a week to a few a month and a year later 2-3 per year.
So you wonder if it helps a healthy dog too.
