Canine Influenza
What you need to know
There are several confirmed cases of canine influenza in the South Bay Area and another was confirmed in Sacramento. Situations that pose risk include boarding kennels, grooming salons, canine daycare, dog parks, animal shelters and any other location or event where dogs can interact. This virus is highly contagious and spreads quickly. As with any other infectious disease, extra precautions may be necessary with puppies, elderly dogs and dogs that are immunocompromised for any reason.
The symptoms are respiratory in nature and can vary from dog to dog. Some have no symptoms while others become severely ill. Most dogs are only mildly affected with a fever, runny nose, and a cough. Others can suffer from life threatening pneumonia.
We have the newly released vaccine that provides protection against both the H3N8 and H3N2 Canine Influenza available now. We urge you to consider vaccinating your dog if it falls under the above mentioned categories.
Please call our office at 530-742-8809 if you have questions.
