Canine
Influenza is a newly emerging infectious disease caused by a "flu"
virus. In dogs, a highly contagious strain of the influenza A virus
known as H3N8 is able to cause respiratory illness that may initially
appear similar to kennel cough. However, this disease can be more
serious than "regular" kennel cough. Recently, a new canine influenza
vaccine was approved for use in the United States. The vaccine has been
clinically proven to significantly reduce the severity of influenza and
the duration of illness.
Lately,
canine influenza has been very hyped in the media. While this disease
should be taken seriously, the vaccine is not recommended for all dogs
in all situations. As is our usual policy at Friendship Springs Veterinary Care we tailor our vaccine recommendations to each pet | | as their own unique
situations require. We currently recommend the vaccine for all puppies
and for any adults that may find themselves in group situations or
populations, such as boarding facilities, grooming parlors, animal
shelters, dog shows, shelters, racing kennels, etc.
