Canine Distemper, Dog Vaccines, Cavalier King Charles Spaniel

Tuesday, January 20th, 2009

Canine Distemper: is a virus that attacks the respiratory, gastrointestinal (GI), and nervous system of Cavalier King Charles Spaniels (dogs), wild canids, raccoons, skunks, and other animals. It causes discharges from the eyes and nose, fever, coughing, vomiting, diarrhea, seizures, twitching paralysis, and, oftem, death. There is no specific drug for the virus–the symptoms can be alleviated, giving the dog’s immune system a chance to fight it off.
