Veterinary medicine is the part of the medical field associated with the treatment of animal diseases and ailments.
Veterinary medicine has become more detailed and in-depth much as human medicine has. The amount of knowledge about animal physiology, diseases, conditions and treatment options continues to grow regularly. The types of diagnostic tests, drugs and treatment modalities is also growing at a rapid pace. Veterinary medicine is an ever-evolving field.

If your dog has canine influenza he will need to see a Vet immediately for treatment. If you are concerned about your dog catching your flu, don't be. Human influenza isn't zoonotic, which means it isn't transmissible to your animal, just as his flu isn't transmissible to you. Never try to treat your animal with human medicine as a vast number of human treatments are toxic and could be fatal to your dog.
