If your dog has had all their shots (important to keep their shots up-to-date) then it's doubtful. If you leave your dog at a kennel be sure they are up-to-date on "kennel cough" shots. Your dog could have Allergies or nodules in his/her nose. It's best to take your dog to the vet to get a final diagnosis. Good luck Marcy Distemper is actually the doggy form of measles. While congestion is a symptom of distemper it is also a symptom of a myriad of other diseases including allergies. If it's a problem take your dog to a vet and heave it checked out.

Dogs with distemper have a dark bloody dirrhea with an odor that is unforgettable. Just a congested nose does not signify distemper.

Son is 12 days old and his mom was feeding him formula and he coughed and choked and sounds like he is weezing when he breathes should he goto emergency room Cause you think he got formula in lungs?

This is a very serious problem at this time. I am an EMT and if the child sounds like he is wheezing or like he is gargling when he breathes he needs to go to the emergency room right away. There is a very high chance of him having fluid in his lungs and he could aspirate.


Does it make sense to say his lungs were so congested he could barely breathe?

Yes, it does.

How long do you have to wait to bring your dog in your house if another dog with distemper was in your house?

Distemper is very contagious! You should clean all areas that the previous dog with distemper was in or on. Use a cleaning solution of one part bleach to 10 parts water. Wipe down everything you can. The best solution is to make sure the new dog is up to date on their distemper vaccinations (DHLP/Parvo a combination vaccine against Distemper, Hepatitis, Lepto, Parainfluenza and Parvo). Make sure if this is an adult dog, that they have had their Distemper vaccination within the last 6 months, if not then then revaccinate again in 2-3 weeks. Wait about 3-4 weeks from that last distemper vaccine before bringing in the new dog. If it is a puppy that is coming in, that could be bad. You just never know for sure when the puppy has built up enough immunity as the Dam's antibodies could be interfering with the distemper vaccines up through 4-5 months. That is why you vaccinate a pup starting at 7-8 weeks, then again 3 weeks later, then again 3 weeks later, then the last one to be given at 4 months. Distemper is a shame to see these days when we have vaccines to prevent that. It is a horrible virus that causes a lot of pain, seizures, etc. etc. Very painful way to die.

Can you paint furniture with distemper paint?

You can and many people do, however a homemade soft distemper alone will easily wash off even when dry and is difficult to seal. Commercial distempers can be sealed with a water based polyurethane, but will not provide a strong bond and could still eventually delaminate from the surface. If, in the future, you want to refinish the surface with another decorative treatment, it's recommended that you remove the distemper layer to allow for a tenacious bond on the new coating.
