"Unexplained Dog Respiratory Illness Spreads, Vets Puzzled"

Veterinary laboratories are warning pet owners about a mysterious respiratory illness affecting dogs in several states, including Oregon, New Hampshire, Colorado, Massachusetts, and Rhode Island. The illness is described as a respiratory disease that can cause coughing, sneezing, and lethargy, and can sometimes lead to pneumonia. The cause of the illness is still unknown, and it does not respond to antibiotics. Experts believe it is spread through close contact and breathing in the same air as an infected animal. While the illness is not particularly fatal, it can lead to death in animals that develop secondary infections. Pet owners are advised to monitor their dogs for symptoms and contact a veterinarian if they suspect their dog is affected. Basic precautions, such as keeping vaccines up to date and practicing social distancing from other dogs, are recommended to prevent the spread of the illness.
