Can some one please name all the vaccine that my dog has to have. I really don't want to miss one. And are all vaccine need to be taken every year or it it only the rabies.


Answer
Canine Parvovirus
Parvovirus is still common especially in lower income areas where people try to save money by avoiding vaccinations. When Parvovirus first occurred 15 years ago, there was no vaccine available and large numbers of dogs lost their lives. When the first Parvovirus vaccine arrived, vets had queues around the street corners.

It causes sudden vomiting and diarrhoea of watery blood, severe shock, acute abdominal pain and death within 24 hours.

Treatment is prolonged, costly and not always successful. The virus spreads easily and can survive up to one year in contaminated soil- a dog has only to sniff where a dog went to the toilet one year ago to pick up the infection eg on its walk in the park

Canine Distemper
Canine Distemper occurs occasionally. It is a highly contagious viral disease. Symptoms vary but can include fever, sneezing, nasal discharge, vomiting, diarrhoea, loss of appetite and depression. Muscle tremors, fits and paralysis occur later in the disease. Treatment is usually ineffective and for those that do survive, there is risk of permanent brain damage.

Canine Hepatitis
This is a very serious viral disease affecting the liver of dogs. Symptoms include high fever, depression, loss of appetite, vomiting, diarrhoea and acute abdominal pain. In severe cases, death can occur within 24-36 hours. Dogs that recover may develop long term liver and kidney problems.

Prevention of Distemper, Hepatitis and Parvovirus
These days, dogs receive annual booster to protect them from Distemper, Hepatitis and Parvovirus (see table below) as a bare minimum.

Kennel Cough
Dogs coming into contact with large numbers of other dogs e.g. boarding kennels, shows, often catch kennel cough and develop a nasty throat and/or chest infection.
There are several "bugs" which can cause kennel cough of which the two worse are Bordetella and Parainfluenza.

Prevention of Kennel Cough
Both Bordetella and Parainfluenza are preventable by use of vaccines. There are still a few other "bugs" which can cause a milder kennel cough, especially in dogs that bark all day long when in kennels, but they are not as serious. It's like over-doing it when you go to support your kid's soccer match (not me!)
Boarding kennels will not allow dogs onto there premises if these vaccines are not current, as they are highly contagious and makes dogs feel very ill.
Coronavirus
Coronavirus causes severe bloody watery diarrhoea, shock, abdominal pain and vomiting. There is variable mortality amongst puppies and older dogs. Signs appear very suddenly. The diarrhoea looks and smells just like Parvovirus. We see approx. 1-2 affected dogs each month.
For more information, go to our Coronavirus page.
Leptospirosis
This is a disease spread by infected rodents. The bacteria affect the kidneys and livers and dogs can get seriously ill. It is more common in places where there is a lot of stagnant water. The South Strathfield Emergency centre sees approx. 2-3 cases each year in dogs from the western suburbs of Sydney. It's something to be wary of.

Prevention of Leptospirosis and Coronavirus
Leptospirosis and Coronavirus can be prevented by using the combined Protech Duramune C2i (Protech C2) vaccine. It needs to shots 4 weeks apart to work. Once this has happened, then its an annual vaccine in combination with either Protech C3 or Protech C5

Annual Booster
Components

Protech C3 Distemper, Hepatitis & Parvovirus
Protech C5 C3 & Kennel Cough
Protech C2 Leptospirosis and Coronavirus
Protech C7 C5 & C2
Protech C3-C2 C3 & C2
Make sure your dog has an annual booster
- they are vital to a dog's health

Where can I buy cubes for a guinea C&C cage in Sydney (Australia)?




Janie


Hi everyone, I want to build a C&C cage although it is pretty hard to find the cubes here in Sydney.
Any suggestions?

Answer
If you cannot find cubes, you may use other materials.
Perhaps a used large dog pen would work?
I used one for my guinea oigs when I didn't have cubes at the moment.
Some people have used kiddie pools (the large plastic kind with high sides) as a cage instead of cubes, and you could even use a sand box.
I'll show you examples:

^I cannot find the swimming pool one, but email me if you need more advice.
I have an appointment to run to...
