Distemper is like when people have lukeimia, its a type of cancer in cats. The cat may have distemper if it is not urinating, and if it is meowing all of the time. Other signs are if it isn't eating and getting very very skinny.
A puppy should get a series of three distemper shots - 8 weeks, 12 weeks and 16 weeks. These should be boostered at 12 months, so by 16 months of age a dog should have had 4 distemper shots.
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.
If your dog has distemper, he or she should be at your Veterinarian's place. This is a most painful disease to die from and is very contagious to other non-vaccinated dogs . It is rare that they can be saved. So please please take your pet to your Vet if you have not already, to get his or her opinion on what can be done, if anything, to save your dog or to have it euthanized to put it out of its pain. I would not worry about blindness at this point, just about the quality of its life at this point. A simple vaccination could have prevented this!
yes distemper is something they get if another animal crosses their yard that is why u are suppose to get shots at 6 week old
There is no such thing as a Human Distemper Virus. The Canine Distemper Virus is only transferable from dog to dog. It is, however, similar to the human virus the Measles. The only way the Canine Distemper Virus would ever transfer to humans is if the virus would be given "new instructions", and mutate. Antibiotics do not work on virus' so there is no cure to CDV, only prevention (by vaccination).

DHPPC as the dog vaccine, vaccinates against Distemper, Hepatitis, Parainfluenza, Parvo, and Corona.
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.
There are some individual veterinarians who claim to have developed sera to cure canine distemper, but the veterinary field as a whole continues to maintain that once a dog is infected, the dog will eventually die of the disease. It is easily preventable by a vaccine developed in 1950, but it must be given when the dog is young, before it can catch the virus that causes the disease.
Yes, distemper is a virus. If the animal is vaccinated, it will not contract distemper.
