New dog flu. Coming soon to your locale.

Post by Steve007 » Tue Jun 06, 2017 8:52 pm

H3N2. Serious stuff and highly contagious. If your dog interacts (it's airborne) with other dogs at events, boarding kennels, etc., it's worth contemplating getting the series of two shots. I did. As with human flu, if your dog gets sick, you'll definitely wish you had. Talk to your vet.

Here's a link on this from the Chief Veterinary Officer, AKC.

My vet mentioned this...I actually mistook what he was talking about as kennel cough. Should have asked more questions I guess. Thanks for the link!
