It's rare for dogs to get sick like humans do, and when they are sick there is ussually a definant cause. For example if your dog eats chocalate. In this case your dog needs to be seen by a vet for a shot that will calm the stomach and take away the poison. Also dogs can get Parvo which will begin as a flu like symtom. It is best to take your dog to the vet if they have been sick for longer than 24 hours or appear to be violantly ill (in this case get them to the vet as soon as possible.)

What is the origin of the name swine lu?
Swine flu was first discovered in people working with pigs. Flu is a disease that is transmitted in various forms among people, pigs, and birds. Sometimes bird flu is transmitted to pigs, and sometime pig flu is transmitted to people. What actually happens is that a pig has pig flu and catches bird flu. A chromosome from the bird flu gets mixed with the pig flu and changes it to a different type of flu. Then a person with human flu catches pig flu. A chromosome with pig and perhaps bird flu mixes with the human flu. The flu is mainly human flu but contains pig and bird flu chromosomes. It got the name swine flu because people working with pigs caught it first. Because it has the pig and bird chromosomes, people with resistance to human flu, have less resistance to swine flu.
