- Canine Distemper (Dog Distemper)
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:

- Dolitl, Easy to Use Large Animal Practice Management Software
Dolitl is a Large Animal Practice Management Software that lives on a server. It brings traditionally separate systems such as cattle tracing, milk recording and drug supplier ordering under one system accessible over the Internet. It ensures records and documents from mobile laptops and other sites are available to all authorized employees and usable offline when no Internet connection is available.
Dolitl built with web technologies. It is not a “web-enabled” application – it is a website. However, it runs like an Intranet (a private version of the Internet), a website that comes from a central server available only to the company where it resides. It also allows restricted outside access so that it can be used in the field by employees.
The software’s Server is simple to install and easy to maintain as it’s all in one place. It can be accessed by computers connected directly to that server; these are called “local” users. If the server is connected to the Internet, dolitl can also be accessed by offsite “remote” users – as long as they have a connection to the Internet. Dolitl highly compatible with peripheral devices and means that there is no need for any server configuration to use scanners, printers and other external devices.
The web application is built with ASP.NET, which is the code that delivers web pages to your browser. Other communication service technologies are used to provide a faster web experience in addition to enabling easy integration with other systems, such those run by the wholesale drug suppliers. The entire application runs using the latest version of the Microsoft .NET Framework, which takes care of memory management and transactions providing a stable and safe environment for the application to execute in.
Dolitl is connected to the Internet, and so any other computer also connected will be capable of using it. This makes getting to work as easy as getting online from any equipment running a suitable web browser. File replication is a necessity, and Amazon S3 provides a simple facility to store and retrieve any amount of data, at any time, from anywhere on the web. And Dolitl has it!! Dolitl uses this capacity to copy files between sites so that you will have access to them all, again ensuring they are not kept in one place.
Being on the web, dolitl can be used by just about any device capable of using the Internet. From the home desktop, laptop or smart phone – anything with a web browser can potentially be used to view the system. Any changes can be viewed immediately by everyone at the same branch, and after a short delay, at all branches.
The license gives you the right to use dolitl for the subscription period. The fee is determined by the number of carers and dolitl site installations. Carers are “employees who generate revenue because of the functionality of dolitl” (typically vets, clinicians and nurses) but not back office administration staff or receptionists as they are granted a free license. A web license allows the practice to have a public website that integrates with dolitl. This means customers can login, view their account and settle invoices. The website also enables the practice to sell items online. Click here to learn more how will the cost of dolitl be calculated.
You are welcome to try out a demo version of the dolitl application. The demonstration uses an imaginary veterinary practice called Seriously Large Animal Veterinary Centre. Try the demo version here. Request username and password here. To receive a copy of Dolitl newsletter, ask questions, or give suggestions on features you would like to see please use the form on this page.
The dolitl name comes from a contemporary take on Dr John Dolittle, the familiar character created by Hugh Lofting.

Last night, I read through the chapters in section 1. I have to say that I think that each chapter is going to be hit or miss with me.
For example, the chapter called “Chemistry and Constraints: How We Choose Our Dogs” wasn’t that enlightening. Jean even admits that there isn’t a lot of research about how we choose our dogs, and she confesses, “So, using a wholly rigorous approach — mulling it over in the shower and chatting with some dog friends — I have generated the following list of dog choice factors.” At least she’s honest, but in a book that throws Pavlov, Premack, and Pinker in the title, I figured the conclusions would be based more in research than mulling it over.
On the other hand, I really enjoyed the chapter called “Observation vs Interpretation.” She contrasts the behaviorism school of thought versus other interpreters, and I’m pretty sure she’s implying folks like Caesar Millan in the later case. It’s pretty clear from the subtext that she doesn’t like the whole “the dog is displaying his dominance” school of thought.
In the end, I think I’ll end up marking the chapters that are worth reading, and then taking the bibliography in the back and doing some further reading. This book is almost like a series of blog posts strung together, and although that’s not really what I look for in a book, it’s probably a good starting point for learning more about what we really know about animal behavior science.

- Clinical Signs of Parvo Virus Infection
Canine parvo virus causes lethargy; loss of appetite; fever; vomiting; and severe, often bloody, diarrhea. Vomiting and diarrhea can cause rapid dehydration, and most deaths from parvo virus occur within 48 to 72 hours following onset of clinical signs. If your puppy or dog shows any of these signs, you should contact your veterinarian promptly.
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. If a puppy is exposed to canine parvo virus during this gap in protection, it may become ill. An additional concern is that immunity provided by a mother’s milk may interfere with an effective response to vaccination. This means even vaccinated puppies may occasionally succumb to parvo virus. To narrow gaps in protection and provide optimal protection against parvo virus during the first few months of life, a series of puppy vaccinations are administered.
