(NaturalNews) Recent increases in outbreaks of distemper around the country are cause for alarm among dog owners. A dog that has been exposed to distemper will come down with the disease in less than five weeks. There is one supplement that has shown to be effective in preventing distemper in dogs and cats, and should a pet contract distemper, there are natural remedies that, if caught early enough, are effective in speeding recovery.
Canine distemper is a highly contagious and serious disease that attacks the respiratory, gastrointestinal, and nervous system. It is spread by airborne exposure, as well as coming into contact with fluids and secretions from an infected animal.
The question of how to protect a pet is a very important and controversial one.
