Preventive measures for dog distemper:

1. The most effective way is to vaccinate regularly to prevent canine distemper. For the health of the dog, the owner should take the dog to vaccinate regularly to ensure that the dog has enough antibodies to resist the virus.

2. Implement sanitation and defense measures, regularly disinfect, regularly deworm, and strengthen the feeding and management of dogs.

3. Do not contact stray dogs when you take your dog out, because stray dogs carry more viruses and bacteria, and do not let dogs come into contact with other dogs' excrement.

Symptoms of canine distemper:

1. After the dog has canine distemper, its symptoms are multi-system symptoms, and the incubation period is 3 to 9 days. The dog first developed respiratory symptoms, manifested as depression, anorexia, redness of the conjunctiva, and watery secretions from the eyes and nose, which turned into purulent mucus within 1 to 2 days, accompanied by coughing and dyspnea. The body temperature is biphasic, starting to rise to about 40°C and lasting for 8 to 18 hours. After 1 to 2 days of no heat period, the body temperature rises again to about 40°C.

2. Gastrointestinal symptoms manifest as vomiting, loss of appetite when gastrointestinal bleeding occurs, mucus or dry stools, and in severe cases, sorghum rice soup-like bloody stools, rapid dehydration, weight loss, and sometimes intussusception.

3. Blisters and purulent dermatitis can be seen on the skin, a large amount of dander is shed, and the foot pads are thickened, hardened and even chapped.

4. The eyes will also be damaged, characterized by conjunctivitis and keratitis.
