TL;DR Summary

At least 25 dogs have been euthanized due to advanced symptoms of Canine Distemper Virus at an animal shelter in Ohio. The shelter has restricted intake and adoptions since the virus was detected in two stray dogs in April. The shelter is continuing to test the dogs daily and moving dogs who tested positive but are asymptomatic or experiencing mild symptoms to another off-site facility. The shelter is urging the public to help as more dogs will get sick if they continue at the rate of the hundreds of dogs they see on a monthly basis.
