Together, we explore how the virus spreads, why timely vaccination is critical, and what treatment and supportive care look like for affected dogs.Dr. Derr also sheds light on the behavioral and neurological impacts distemper can leave behind, as well as how rescue organizations can support dogs through rehabilitation. We share real-life experiences caring for dogs with distemper and discusses community actions that can help stop outbreaks before they start.Whether you’re a pet parent, a foster, or a rescue advocate, this conversation gives you the science, stories, and practical tools to better protect dogs in our communities.
