The American Kennel Club has released a statement regarding the canine flu/upper respiratory infection spreading across the country. They recommend the following:
Keep dogs up to date on vaccines and avoid contact with other dogs
If your dog has been exposed to a dog with an upper respiratory illness but is not showing symptoms, it is recommended the dog be quarantined for a minimum of 2 weeks.
If your dog has been exposed to a dog with an upper respiratory illness and is showing symptoms, it is recommended you quarantine that dog for 4 weeks after symptoms have subsided.
Do not take your dog to any events if it is showing any signs of illness such as coughing, sneezing, wheezing, nasal discharge, lack of energy or difficulty breathing.
In summary, if your dog is ill, or even slightly ‘off’, please leave them home and separate from your other dogs.
