What to do if canine distemper occurs in a dog farm
Recently, canine distemper has broken out in many dog farms and has become a hot topic of concern to the pet industry and dog owners. Canine distemper is a highly contagious viral disease with an extremely high fatality rate. It spreads quickly especially in high-density breeding environments such as dog farms. This article will provide you with structured solutions based on hot discussions and data from the entire network in the past 10 days.
1. The latest epidemic trend of canine distemper (data in the past 10 days)
| area | Number of reported cases | Mainly infected dog breeds | Mortality |
|---|---|---|---|
| East China | 127 cases | German shepherd, golden retriever | 42% |
| North China | 89 cases | Husky, Teddy | 38% |
| South China | 65 cases | Border Collie, Corgi | 35% |
| southwest region | 43 cases | chinese garden dog | 45% |
2. Emergency treatment plan for canine distemper in dog farms
1. Isolation measures
• Isolate the sick dog immediately and keep it in a separate area
• Staff take care of each other in batches to avoid cross-infection
• Complete disinfection of contaminated areas with 3% sodium hydroxide solution
2. Treatment plan
| symptom stage | Recommended medication | Course of treatment | efficient |
|---|---|---|---|
| Early stage (fever) | Canine distemper monoclonal antibody + interferon | 5-7 days | 78% |
| Middle stage (respiratory tract) | Ceftriaxone + ambroxol | 7-10 days | 65% |
| Late stage (neurological symptoms) | Vitamin B1+B12 | More than 14 days | 32% |
3. Precautions
• Urgent vaccination of all healthy dogs (Pfizer five-shot vaccine recommended)
• Environmental disinfection 3 times a day for 2 weeks
• Suspension of the introduction of new dogs, with an observation period of no less than 30 days
3. 5 key issues hotly discussed across the Internet
1.Controversy over vaccine effectiveness:The latest research shows that the protection rate of traditional vaccines against mutated strains drops by about 15%
2.Chinese medicine auxiliary treatment:The usage of astragalus polysaccharide preparations increased by 240% year-on-year
3.Environment survival time:The virus can survive in low temperature environments for up to 7 days
4.Cross-species transmission:Three cases of suspected ferret infection have been reported
5.Rehabilitation Dog Management:The detoxification period after recovery can last up to 90 days, and continuous isolation is required
4. Comparison of disinfection solutions recommended by experts
| Disinfection method | Cost(yuan/㎡) | Action time | Killing rate |
|---|---|---|---|
| UV irradiation | 0.8 | 30 minutes | 92% |
| Potassium hydrogen persulfate | 1.2 | 10 minutes | 99% |
| glutaraldehyde | 0.6 | 20 minutes | 95% |
| sodium hypochlorite | 0.3 | 15 minutes | 88% |
5. Long-term management suggestions
1. CreateBiosafety three-level system: Entrance disinfection-isolation observation-vaccination
2. Conduct antibody level testing monthly (recommended CDV antibody titer ≥1:80)
3. implementAll in, all outManagement system to avoid mixing dogs from different batches
4. Equipped with PCR detection equipment to achieve early and rapid diagnosis
Summary:The prevention and control of canine distemper requires a strategy of "prevention first, comprehensive prevention and treatment". Through a three-pronged approach of vaccination, strict disinfection and scientific management, the incidence of disease in dog farms can be effectively reduced. If an epidemic occurs, please contact the local animal husbandry and veterinary department immediately for professional guidance.
