Pet Travel Advisory – Leptospirosis
Friday, August 26th, 2011Pet Travel Advisory – pet health issues
A relatively rare and often fatal disease of dogs, Leptospirosis, should concern traveling pet owners, especially if they travel into areas that have experienced either heavy rains, or recent flooding.
With the use of preventive vaccines, your pet will have the protection needed should you travel to the areas mentioned. Your local veterinarian of record will be the best source of information, along with checking CDC, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
Initial signs and symptoms of Leptospirosis are fever, loss of appetite, depression, vomiting, and muscle tremors. Treatment is available, yet is costly, considering preventive vaccinations can both save your pet’s life and save you expense.
