A friend in another breed in Hunterdon County NJ has several cases
this weekend, possibly brought in by visiting pet dog. The dog that
came in from the show circuit is as yet still fine, but other young
dogs have gone from fine one day to the next day having high fevers
(105.5 F) and one has probably pneumonia per x-ray. Vets are
supporting with fluids and both amoxicillin and doxycycline to combat
secondary infections.
Note from above link that any possible cases MUST be reported to the
state, and testing through the state is much cheaper than some of the
old sources. As these were the first cases her vet has seen, these
facts were new to the vet, who was concentrating on the main thing:
saving the dogs.
