Greetings Stefanie

You must get the VET to do one specific test to confirm if the dog has distemper. YES THERE IS A CURE.

To shorten your time do the following.

The very best test for rapidly diagnosing ACUTE distemper is to do what is called a brush border smear of the cells of the inside lining of the bladder. These cells ALWAYS have inclusions. So, easy to collect, easy to stain (quick dip) and instantly diagnosed with inclusions in these cells. If present then Distemper. If not then something else.

Diseases that mimic and is similar to Canine Distemper

Chastek's

Listeriosis

Tularemia

Histoplasmosis

Poisonings


If your dog is confirmed distemper you can save your dog. I have saved many dogs. I am with experts in the field of Distemper and VETS.

Let me know the test results. After that we will cross the next bridge if needed.

You can find my posting on the cure of Distemper here under the topic of Canine Distemper and under the title """"""For Any Cases of Confirmed Distemper""""" Everything is there for you to follow and to cure your dog. Just follow those instructions and everything will be ok. Trust me.

Newcastles Disease Virus Vaccine is the ANSWER TO THE CURE BOTH FOR HERPES AND DISTEMPER.
