Canine distemper is a highly contagious and serious disease caused by a virus that attacks the respiratory, gastrointestinal, and, often, the nervous systems of puppies and dogs. Puppies and dogs usually become infected through airborne exposure to the virus contained in respiratory secretions of an infected dog or wild animal.
All dogs are at risk but puppies younger than four months old and dogs that have not been vaccinated against canine distemper are at increased risk of acquiring the disease.
The first sign of distemper is eye discharge that may appear watery to pus-like. Subsequently, dogs develop fever, nasal discharge, coughing, lethargy, reduced appetite, vomiting, and diarrhea. In later stages, the virus may attack the nervous system, bringing about seizures, twitching, or partial or complete paralysis. Occasionally, the virus may cause footpads to harden.
How to prevent Canine Distemper?
Vaccination and avoiding contact with infected animals are key elements of canine distemper prevention.
Vaccination is important. Young puppies are very susceptible to infection, particularly because the natural immunity provided in their mothers’ milk may wear off before the puppies’ own immune systems are mature enough to fight off infection. To protect adult dogs, pet owners should be sure that their dog’s distemper vaccination is up-to-date. Ask your veterinarian about a recommended vaccination program for your canine companion.
Below are kinds of vaccines that often used to prevent canine distemper:

An antiseptic to aid in wound healing and in prevention of topical bacterial and fungal infections -including wounds, cuts, abrasions, ears, hooves, udders, declaws, ear cropping, navel dipping, tail docking, castrations and surgical site preparations.
A third generation iodine solution with high activity and low dermal toxicity for use on horses, dogs and farm animals.
Three times as active as povidone iodine and tincture of iodine.
Has a broader range of activity against bacterial and fungal infections.
Does not sting upon application.
Has low dermal toxicity – does not irritate skin and eyes.
Slight discoloration of skin or hair disappears within 5 minutes
Unlike other iodines which simply lay on the surface, Xenodine actually penetrates the skin
Adheres to the application site longer to continue fighting infection. As a result, frequent reapplication is unnecessary
DIRECTIONS: Cleanse affected area thoroughly and apply Xenodine two or three times daily, or as needed. Apply a sufficient amount of Xenodine to cover the affected area. For more rapid release of active ingredient, Xenodine must be applied to a moist surface. The wound site may be covered or bandaged after application. When using the pump spray, adjust the nozzle by turning counter clockwise approximately 1/4 turn or until the desired spray pattern is obtained. Hold the container 10 to 12 inches (25 to 30 cm) from the skin.
