There have been reports in the media of a “mystery dog illness” in Oregon. These cases are under investigation by veterinarians and public health experts. Affected dogs have developed a chronic cough that is similar to other canine infectious respiratory diseases, and the cough may last 4-8 weeks. A definitive cause has not been determined, but experts believe it may be caused by a virus. Based on the available information, cats and exotic pets are not affected.
There have been no reports of the illness affecting dogs in Ohio, but there are concerns that the disease could spread outside of Oregon if people travel with their pets during the holidays.

What can you do to protect your dog?
1) Make sure your dog is current on their vaccinations.
2) Avoid taking your dog to high-risk environments (e.g., boarding facilities, dog parks, pet stores), if possible.
3) Schedule an appointment to have your dog examined by a veterinarian if they develop coughing or other signs of illness.

We will continue to monitor the situation as it unfolds, and keep you posted as new information becomes available.
