When a dog gets canine distemper, clinical measures mainly adopt a combination of cause treatment and symptomatic treatment. When a dog is infected with canine distemper early and has no obvious symptoms, it can be treated with high-dose antiserum, monoclonal antibodies, interferon and other antiviral drugs. When the clinical symptoms of canine distemper are obvious, in order to control secondary infection, sugar supplementation, fluid replenishment, fever reduction, etc. are often used, and methods such as strengthening feeding and management are often used to enhance the body's resistance and improve the cure rate.
Methods to identify whether a dog has canine distemper:
1. The simplest method: use a canine distemper test paper to check whether the dog has canine distemper.
2. Measure body temperature to see if there is bidirectional fever: Usually canine distemper is no different from a common cold at the beginning. Check the dog's temperature every six hours to see if it has a fever in the morning and evening and is better at noon. An increase in body temperature in the morning and evening is an obvious characteristic of canine distemper.
3. Cracked paw pads and nose: Many dogs in the early stages of canine distemper have this condition, which is very different from a cold.
