The various secretions and excretions (nasal juice, saliva, tears, pericardial fluid, pleural fluid, ascites and urine) of sick dogs, as well as blood, cerebrospinal fluid, lymph nodes, liver, spleen, spinal cord and other organs contain a large number of viruses and can be discharged to the outside world along with respiratory secretions and urine. Healthy dogs can be infected via the respiratory or digestive tract through direct contact with sick dogs or through contaminated air or food. In addition to puppies are most susceptible to infection, foxes and minks in fur animals are also very susceptible to canine distemper.
[Diagnosis]
(1) Epidemiological characteristics: the disease is more frequent in the cold season (October to April), especially in the canine concentration of units or areas. Once the disease occurs in a group of dogs, it is very difficult for other puppies to avoid infection unless under absolute isolation. Lactating puppies rarely develop the disease because they receive antibodies from breast milk. Puppies between the ages of 3 months and 1 year are usually the most susceptible. (2) Clinical features: biphasic fever (i.e., the temperature rises to about 4&C at the beginning of the disease, and then falls to normal after 1-2 days, and then rises again after 2-3 days); respiratory symptoms appear when the temperature rises for the second time (a few cases die at this time), with coughing, sneezing, flow of plasma to purulent nasal juice, dry nasal lenses, eyelid swelling, and purulent conjunctivitis, which can often occur in the later stages. Conjunctivitis, corneal ulcers may occur in the later stages; red spots, edema and purulent papules on the skin of the lower abdomen and inner femur; frequent vomiting; constipation at the beginning and dysentery soon afterward, with foul-smelling feces, sometimes mixed with blood and gas bubbles. In a few cases, keratotic transitional lesions on the palms of the feet and the skin of the nose are seen. Neurological signs (spasms, seizures, convulsions, etc.) are present in about 10-30% of the dogs. The lethality of the disease can be as high as 30-80%. The lethality rate is even higher when the disease is mixed with infectious canine hepatitis. The symptoms are complicated by the fact that the disease is often mixed with infectious canine hepatitis and other diseases and secondary infection with bacteria. Therefore, based on the above symptoms can only make a preliminary diagnosis, the final diagnosis must also take the material (conjunctiva, bladder, stomach, lungs, trachea and brain, serum) sent to the testing unit to do virus isolation, neutralization test and other specific tests.
[Preventive measures]
(1) Regular vaccination: The canine distemper vaccine produced in China is a weak cell culture vaccine. In order to improve the effect of immunization, it should be carried out according to the following immunization procedures. The first immunization is at 6 weeks of age, the second at 8 weeks of age and the third at 10 weeks of age. Subsequent immunizations are performed once a year at a dose of two milliliters each time to obtain a certain degree of immunity. In view of the presence of maternal antibodies in the body of puppies under 12 weeks of age, which can significantly affect the immunization effect of canine distemper vaccine, therefore, for puppies under 12 weeks of age, it is best to apply the measles vaccine (canine distemper virus and measles virus belong to the same measles virus crumb virus, with the same antigenicity), the specific method of immunization is that, when puppies at the age of 1 month and 2 months of age, the measles vaccine immunization once, the immunization dose is Each dog intramuscular injection of 1 ml (2.5 human), to 12 to 16 weeks of age, with canine distemper vaccine immunization. According to some units reported, with this immunization program immunization, you can get a better immune effect.
(2) Strengthen veterinary health and epidemic prevention measures, the farms should try to do self-propagation. In the epidemic season of this disease, it is strictly prohibited to bring the dogs raised by individuals to the place where the dogs gather.
<3)Timely isolation and treatment: timely detection of sick dogs, early isolation and treatment, prevention of secondary infection, which is the key to improve the cure rate. The early stage of the disease can be injected intramuscularly or subcutaneously with anti-distemper high immune serum or serum (or whole blood) of dogs recovering from the disease. The dosage of serum should be based on the condition and the size of the dog, usually using 5 to 10 ml, can obtain a certain degree of efficacy. There are data reports, in the high free serum treatment at the same time, with the application of antitoxin lyophilized powder injection, can improve the therapeutic effect, its use and dosage: before treatment with saline or water for injection 20 ml will be antitoxin dissolved, medium-sized dogs intravenous drip 2 to 4 bottles, the age of the dog, the dosage can be reduced. Antitoxin can also be injected intramuscularly. In addition, the early application of antibiotics (such as penicillin, streptomycin, etc.), and with symptomatic treatment, for the prevention of bacterial secondary infections and the recovery of sick dogs are of great significance.
(4) Thoroughly disinfect the kennel and exercise area: the kennel and its exercise area should be disinfected with 3% caustic soda (aka sodium hydroxide) solution or 10% formalin.
--------- ---------- ---------- -----
Distemper must be treated by a doctor as soon as possible, and in the unfortunate event that the virus is contracted, it can be completely cured with an immune serum and antimicrobials in the early stages of the disease. Whether hospitalized or treated at home, a warm, dry environment needs to be prepared. Most importantly, your dog should be vaccinated as a puppy, avoid going out during an epidemic, and never come into contact with sick dogs, their feces, or vomit.
There is no effective drug treatment for this disease. When the sick dog shows obvious symptoms, the prognosis is poor, even if a few sick dogs have endured, but also more sequelae. In general, specific and symptomatic therapy is adopted to prevent secondary infection and reduce death. In the early stage of the disease, subcutaneous or intramuscular injection of anti-distemper high immune serum can receive better results. The dosage of serum is 2-3ml per kilogram of body weight, and it is applied continuously for 2-3 days. In order to control secondary infection can be used broad-spectrum antibiotic treatment, such as kanamycin, erythromycin, chloramphenicol, gentamicin and so on. To improve circulation and prevent dehydration, glucose solution and electrolytes should be given in large quantities. Cooperate with anti-inflammatory and antipyretic drugs. At the same time the use of cardiotonic, diuretic, hemostatic drugs for comprehensive treatment, in order to protect the gastrointestinal tract can also be orally tannin and bismuth subnitrate.
Canine distemper is a common highly contact viral infection, mainly through the respiratory tract, is caused by the virus. The lethality is very high, to the middle and late stages of the disease when the treatment is very bacteria difficult. Nowadays, the general use of serum antibody treatment in the early stage of the disease has a certain effect, once the disease to the middle and late stage of the effect is very poor. Therefore, I think there is no need for you to use the serum, and you should use infusion therapy and high doses of antibiotics, tranquilizers, and antiviral drugs. In addition, you should strengthen the care, use antibiotic eye drops for the eyes, and some antibiotics for the nasal cavity to make it moist can be used. Treatment: Vancomycin 1 stub/dose, 3 times a day; Virazole 2 stubs/dose, 3 times a day; Vitamin C 1 stub/dose, 3 times a day. Nursing care: daily feeding glucose water, appropriate to put a small amount of salt, in addition to the water to add the Panax quinquefolium, each time should be a small amount, the number of times appropriate to more, can be every 2 hours for a time. If the convulsions are severe can be injected sedative, or oral valium (1/3-1/2 of the human dose). Eye drops are used 7-8 times daily. However, it is difficult to achieve good results because it is already in the middle to late stages.
Canine distemper prevention and control methods:
(1) Canine distemper must be preventive, good vaccination.
(2) Do a good job of disinfection and isolation to prevent the expansion and spread of the epidemic.
(3) Early should be a large number of application of high immune serum, or immune globulin, strong canine Kang, interferon, monoclonal antibodies and other good emergency passive immunization.
(4) symptomatic treatment: the initial anti-infection, anti-virus, anti-shock drugs: such as ampicillin sodium, cefazolin sodium, small nosocomial, kanamycin, canine disease Kang, viral azole, Shuanghuanglian, Chingkailing, Wei Gang, Li Gang, pets, pets, wear Hu Ning, dexamethasone, myocardial liver, coenzyme A and vitamins, rehydration fluid and other drugs. Inject it into the muscle or inject it into the body. (Dosage is based on body weight and drug instructions.)
(5) blood transfusion: take the whole blood of the recovered dogs that have suffered from canine distemper and transfuse it intravenously to the affected dogs. (Blood types must be compatible.) In the early and middle stages of the disease, blood transfusion therapy is taken, together with infusion and anti-infection treatment, the cure rate is high. In the late stage of canine distemper, dehydration is serious and the body is in a state of exhaustion, blood transfusion, cardiac strengthening, fluid rehydration, oral rehydration . Can also save.
(6) the late stage of canine distemper, neurological symptoms, the application of the above treatments, often does not work, with the traditional Chinese medicine "Distemper Spirit Soup" (canine distemper pumping No. 2) antelope horn injections, niu huang anong pills and other medicines .
(7) acupuncture: it is best to use the Tianmen, Renzhong, the fate of the door, Tao Tao, the big cone and other points.
Now it is the peak season of canine distemper epidemic, come to the clinic more affected dogs, the use of Chinese and Western medicine combination of methods of prevention and treatment of canine distemper, received a more satisfactory results.

Successful case 2:
It is generally believed that once a dog gets distemper he won't live. can't live, I think maybe it's not that serious. Here is my experience in curing my puppy from distemper.
The bulldog puppy, less than 2 months old, was sold to me cheaply by a dog dealer, and I later realized that the puppy had distemper. The puppy had stopped eating & drinking and was extremely weak. I carried it to the pet hospital to see a doctor, but the doctors said it was hopeless and didn't even bother to take a second look. But I refused to give up and bought some medicine and shots from the vet hospital to go home and treat it myself.
I put tablets crushed against water in a syringe (uneasy needle) and poured it down the puppy's mouth every day, and also since the puppy had stopped eating, I gave it glucose water every day in this way. And of course gave it quite a few shots.
Because of my careful care, the puppy is also very tenacious, and then surprisingly gradually able to eat on their own. I fed it cabbage leaves, which it loved. I later learned from medical information that the puppy's eating of cabbage played a big role in its recovery.
Beginning of the puppy still have asthma, coughing phenomenon, many people said that this dog even if living will leave sequelae, (refers to asthma, coughing phenomenon). But it turns out that there are no after-effects left, and now this puppy is one of the strongest dogs in our area.
I would like to remind everyone that many domestic pet hospitals are in fact professional, and this industry is also chaotic management of a very part of the formal industry. Many doctors are not very responsible for the animals. Many times it is the owner who can really save the animal.
