UPDATE FOR NEW RESPIRATORY VIRUS
There was an update with experts the from across the country about this “new” virus. Essentially the update is despite all the new testing they have NOT found a new virus. All the data points to just localized shifts in the viruses that are already out there. One of the take aways for us in particular is that Missouri has not seen a large increase at this time. Everyone wants to know if it’s safe to go to the dog park/groomer etc. Based on the most recent data there is no more risk now than there was in the past. Anytime there are dogs congregating there is always risk of viruses spreading but making sure your vaccines are current can help protect your pets. Feel free to watch the video, they do a nice job of explaining how a lot of this works in a way that is accessible to anyone. If you have any questions don’t hesitate to give us a call.

Trupanion recently convened a panel of global veterinary authorities and thought leaders to discuss this timely topic.
