🐟 Attention Adventure Pet Owners! 🐾

Did you know that salmon, trout, and other fish native to our region can pose a serious risk to your furry friends? 🐶🐱 The culprit: Salmon Poisoning Disease (SPD) – a potentially fatal condition caused by eating raw or undercooked fish infected with a parasite carrying harmful bacteria. 😨

Here’s what you need to know:
⚠️ Symptoms (typically appear 5-7 days after ingestion):
• Vomiting 🤮
• Diarrhea 💩
• Lack of appetite 🍽️❌
• Fever 🌡️
• Lethargy 😴

💡 Prevention Tips:
• 🐟 NEVER let your pet eat raw fish.
• 🏞️ Keep an eye on them during outdoor adventures near rivers or streams.
• 🍽️ Fully cook fish if sharing with your pet.

🚨 What to Do If You Suspect SPD:
Contact your vet immediately! SPD is treatable if caught early, but time is critical. ⏰

Spread the word to protect our pets! 🐕‍🦺🐾💙
