According to Reuters 29**, a mysterious respiratory disease is spreading among dogs in the United States, and the American Veterinary Medical Association says that this respiratory disease has now appeared in at least 14 states in the United States.
Symptoms of this respiratory illness in dogs have been reported to include a cough that lasts for 4 weeks to 6 weeks, which can be mild bronchitis or can escalate to pneumonia, with some acute cases rapidly progressing to pneumonia within 24 to 36 hours.
Since mid-August, more than 200 cases of the disease have been reported by veterinarians in Oregon, and 13 states, including Colorado, Illinois and New Hampshire, have reported cases in an unknown number.
*Personnel said that although the sick dog showed symptoms of respiratory infection, diagnostic tests for common respiratory diseases were negative. In addition, the disease is often resistant to standard** antibiotics.
The American Veterinary Medical Association says researchers are still trying to determine the source of the potentially fatal disease. Currently, they suspect that the disease may be caused by a new type of virus, but further laboratory tests are needed to confirm.
The association also reminds dog owners to pay close attention to the health of their dogs, and if they find that their dogs have symptoms such as coughing and difficulty breathing, they should seek medical attention in time. In addition, dog owners are advised to avoid contact with other dogs to reduce the risk of disease transmission.
This mysterious canine respiratory disease has caused widespread concern and concern, and many dog owners are worried about it. They hope that researchers will be able to identify the source of the disease as soon as possible and find effective ways to protect the health of their dogs.
Currently, the American Veterinary Medical Association has worked with relevant agencies to strengthen research and surveillance of this disease. They hope that by working together, they can solve this problem that plagues American dogs as soon as possible.
It is very important for dog owners to maintain the health of their dogs. In addition to seeking medical attention promptly, they should also pay attention to the dog's diet and environmental hygiene, and avoid exposing the dog to the environment and other dogs that may spread diseases.
Hopefully, in the near future, researchers will be able to find the source of this mysterious canine disease and provide a better way for dog owners. Let's take care of and protect our dogs together, so that they can grow up healthy and happy.
