TL;DR Summary

A mystery dog illness is spreading across the United States, causing respiratory distress and not responding to usual treatments. The cause of the illness remains unknown, but symptoms include chronic cough, fever, discharge from the eyes and nose, and pneumonia. The illness is resistant to antibiotics and may spread through dog-to-dog contact, shared objects, and potentially even human contact. Cases have been reported in multiple states, but it is unclear if they are all caused by the same organism. To prevent the illness, dog owners are advised to reduce contact with unfamiliar dogs, avoid sick dogs, and keep up-to-date on vaccinations. The potential for the illness to spread to humans is still uncertain.
