Recently, a mysterious respiratory disease has appeared in many places in the United States, spreading among dogs. According to Reuters 29**, this respiratory disease has now appeared in at least 14 states in the United States. The Veterinary Association is concerned about this and calls on pet owners to take precautions.
It is reported that the main symptoms of this mysterious disease are cough, shortness of breath, increased eye and nose secretions, etc., and some dogs also have fever, vomiting and diarrhea and other symptoms. The cause of the disease is unknown, but the Veterinary Association speculates that it may be related to a viral or bacterial infection. At present, some dogs have died due to serious illness, which is sad.
The Veterinary Association says that in order to ensure the health of dogs, pet owners should minimize taking their dogs out and avoid contact with other dogs. At the same time, it is necessary to keep the dog's living environment clean and hygienic, bathe the dog regularly, trim the nails, and strengthen the dog's immunity. In addition, the Veterinary Association also recommends that dogs be vaccinated to reduce the risk of infection.
In response to this disease, the American Veterinary Medical Association has activated an emergency response mechanism, organizing experts to study** and how to prevent and control it. The association also reminds pet owners that if they find that their dogs have similar symptoms, they should take their dogs to see a doctor immediately without delay.
In recent years, there have been many canine epidemics in China. In order to protect the health of dogs in China, pet owners should attach great importance to the prevention of canine diseases, regularly take dogs to vaccinate, and strengthen daily care. At the same time, veterinary departments at all levels should also strengthen the monitoring of canine diseases, release epidemic information in a timely manner, and provide scientific and reasonable prevention and control suggestions for the majority of pet owners.
Here, we call for a shared focus on canine health, but so far there is little indication that the disease is contagious to humans, but veterinarians warn pet dog owners to be extra careful.
