Please bring up to date vaccination papers with you for your pup’s next appointment, specific to flu and bordatella. I have seen the posts about a new canine virus that is spreading across the US. It seems to be along the lines of a bordatella or a flu, but can cause pneumonia. Cough, runny nose with green gunk as well as green eye discharge. If a fever develops it will probably be pneumonia. I called my veterinarian, who also is my cousin, and she confirmed this is real. The better your dog’s immune system, the less severe the symptoms. Illinois has many cases and MO seems to be following suit. I only have one client here at a time and I do disinfect every day, but I don’t want to take any chances with your babies or with mine. Thank you for understanding.
