Our current recommendations to keep your dog safe from this new affliction are as follows:

1. If at all possible, avoid taking your dog to places where other dogs frequent such as dog parks, boarding kennels, grooming facilities and dog friendly stores.
2. If boarding, grooming or being around other dogs is a necessity make sure your dogs are current on ALL respiratory vaccines. These include distemper, bordetella and canine influenza.
3. Any dog but especially those going around other dogs, seniors and the immuno-suppressed should start supplementing with an immune boosting supplement called Imuquin. It is available in clinic and through our online pharmacy. https://layfieldvetpocomoke.vetsfirstchoice.com.
4. Lastly, if your dog starts exhibiting symptoms such as coughing and lethargy, call the office immediately. Early treatment may prevent significant disease progression.

Cases have been reported in Oregon, Colorado, Indiana, Illinois, Washington, Idaho, California, the Northeast and more.

Meet our newest intake Slugger!
We pulled Slugger from Eastern Shore Regional Animal Control Facility Melfa as he is an amazing good dog who was in imminent danger of euthanasia due to lack of space and so many incoming dogs.
Slugger is good with people, and friendly with other dogs, and was non reactive to cats when walked through the cat room.
Despite his muscular body and big mouth Slugger is sweet, gentle and respectful. He is about a year old and full of comical goofy energy. There is no feeling down around this boy. He will put a smile on your face every time you look at him. His happy, jolly energy is infectious! Slugger is also smart and willing to please.
Slugger needs to complete some vetting and be neutered, but will soon be available for adoption.
Apply here if interested and mention Slugger by name on your application.
