I haven't vaccinated since it would be two months before the dogs had both
vaccines and developed immunity anyway, but since I will have two seniors
next year I will vaccinate in the first quarter of 2018.
I have always changed before attending to dogs when returning home from
showing (and I don't show if I have a bitch bred or baby puppies at home), and
of course there's no need to destroy clothes or shoes, this is viral and
only lives 12 hours on a hard surface in the BEST circumstances.
I suspect we will see far less of this as we deal w summer heat waves.
Sunshine and all....

The people I know who have vaccinated their dogs have not had any reaction
to the shot. That said, they have only had the first shot and not yet the
second.

So far, the flu has killed a few dogs in the Southeast. Friends of mine
have gotten the vaccines for their dogs and the dogs are reacting with

This
flu is much more serious than anything that has come before. Supposedly
it was brought in by rescue dogs from Asia. It is airborne and very
contagious. Serious cases develop pneumonia and that's when deaths occur.
Strong immune systems will help, immune systems that aren't compromised by
poisonous topicals and ingestibles. I haven't been to any shows since March.
I
just don't know what to do OR whether to get _the vaccine or not. I've
got one of my vets not even selling the vaccine! The other one will. (The
one who won't also stopped selling Bravecto, as a couple of his patients

How dangerous is this flu? I get the flu now and then and just work
through it.
A couple of weeks ago I watched Linda Bankhead do her fantastic job of
judging and wipe her hands after each dog. She said the shepherd people aren't
used to showing the teeth and she didn't want to do it herself. I
appreciate the hand cleaning, but I haven't seen the flu here in Southern
California, and is it that serious?
I also want names and addresses for those who are going to strip before
going into their homes. We should set up a caravan to view the proceedure.

I was at a kennel club mtg last night and a lot of the exhibitors in the
club are not showing their dogs this summer. They are vaccinating but the
vaccine takes about two months to become fully effective. I
We are having a show next month and will follow akc guidelines for
frequent disinfecting. Many members working st the show will strip off before
entering the house to try to prevent infecting their own dogs. Some members
are vowing to throw the clothes away rather than take them through the house
to the laundry. The flu can be spread through the air. Entries at many
shows are down by 40 to 60 percent
