What YOU need to know about CANINE INFLUENZA

Canine influenza is...

a relatively new and highly contagious disease caused by a strain of the influenza A virus known as H3N8. Because canine influenza is caused by a new virus, dogs have no natural immunity to it. Virtually every dog exposed to the virus for the first time will become infected. This particular strain of influenza A only affects dogs and does not cause disease in people.

quickly spread, the same way human influenza is spread - through direct contact (licking and nuzzling); through the air (coughing or sneezing); and via contaminated surfaces (such as a person's hands or clothing).

characterized by a persistent cough that may last for several weeks. Other signs of infection include low-grade fever, runny nose, and lack of energy or appetite.

sometimes quite serious and can be deadly. In about 20% of cases, more severe signs will occur, such as high fever and pneumonia. A small number of dogs infected with the virus have died from complications associated with the disease.

hard to diagnosis because the signs of canine influenza are so similar to those caused by other respiratory infections. Often the disease is not suspected until the illness becomes severe or lasts an unusually long time.

a greater risk for dogs in multiple-dog environments. Because canine influenza is easily spread between dogs, places where dogs congregate may pose a higher risk of infection. Some of these venues include shelters, kennels, breeding kennels, pet stores, doggy daycare's, dog kindergartens, groomer's, dog parks and dog events.

Prevention is the best medicine against canine influenza.

There is currently no specific treatment for canine influenza. As with all viral illnesses, the disease must run its course. At this time, the best way to keep your dog safe from canine influenza is through preventive measures.
