Canine Distemper
Canine Distemper is a highly contagious viral disease that is transmitted in the air. It affects the dog's respiratory, gastrointestinal and central nervious system and can be fatal if not treated in time. Puppies and older dogs are more susceptible to contracting canine distemper. (Distemper in cats is known as Feline Panleukopenia and is caused by the parvovirus.)

Dogs who have contracted canine distemper suffer from the following symptoms which often get more severe as the disease progresses:
- Redness in the eyes

Natural Treatment for dogs with Canine Distemper
Vi-Pro Plus by PetAlive |
Conventional Treatment
It is important to seek treatment immediately if you suspect your dog has contracted canine distemper. While there is no known cure, conventional treatment usually involved antibiotics for secondary infections and intravenous fluids. Because most dogs are vaccinated for the distemper virus, the incidence of this disease has greatly decreased over the years. However, many vets and animal caretakers believe that yearly vaccinations are leading to more and more disorders of the immune system which results in dogs and cats becoming suspectible to many diseases.
Natural Homeopathic Treatments for Canine Distemper
Canine Distemper is one disease where there is a wealth of evidence that homeopathic remedies have a much higher success rate than traditional methods. The primary ingredient in many homeopathic remedies, Distemperinum, has a proven track record in recovering animals who have contracted the disease. Other ingredients used in the homeopathic approach to treatment include:
- Bryonia C6 – Bryonia C6 is a proven remedy for the treatment of dry mucus membranes. It is also effective in clearing mucus from the chest.
- Echinacea Purpurea – Echinacea Purpurea is an herb used for the treatment of colds, flus and other viral-type infections.
New - Vi-Pro Plus by PetAlive
