Leptospirosis Outbreak in Fresno
Officials in Fresno, California are warning dog families that they have seen at least recent nine cases of leptospirosis among dogs in the area. The most recent case appears to have been contracted at the Woodward Dog Park.
Symptoms of this bacterial infection range from general lethargy and refusal to eat to fever, vomiting, and diarrhea. Not only do dogs spread the disease among themselves, they can also spread it to humans, where it causes flu-like symptoms.
A vaccine is available for your dog at the low cost of just $6 at the CCSPA.

Good day, and good dog!
