| Canine Hepatitis (dhlp-P) |
 |
- Canine Hepatitis is the second disease covered by the DHLP-P
vaccine. It also is a highly contagious disease and can be
spread by contact with contaminated saliva, urine or stool from
an infected dog. The virus itself affects the dog’s abdominal
organs including the liver.
- Signs of infection include but are not limited to an
increased temperature as well as discharges from the eyes, mouth
and/or nose. Sometimes the eyes will actually become red or the
dog will hump his back and try to rub on the floor to relieve
the pain. As the disease progresses, the animal becomes
lethargic, stops eating and often becomes comatose.
- Within six to ten days the infected dog will usually die or
makes a quick recovery. For those few dogs that do survive the
infection, a temporary opacity of the eyes appears.
