We hope this correspondence finds you and your furry companion in good health. We wanted to bring to your attention an important matter regarding the recent reports of severe Canine Infectious Respiratory Disease (CIRD) in Oregon. The Oregon Veterinary Medical Association (OVMA) has published an article on this issue, which you can read here.
CIRD, often called “infectious tracheobronchitis,” is a contagious respiratory disease affecting dogs of all ages. It spreads rapidly in environments where dogs congregate, such as dog parks, grooming facilities, boarding kennels, and even veterinary clinics. Symptoms of CIRD include coughing, sneezing, runny nose, lethargy, and decreased appetite.
We want to ensure the health and safety of our beloved Hannah Pets. If your dog is exhibiting any respiratory symptoms, we strongly encourage you to:
Early detection and intervention are key to a Pet’s well-being. If you have any questions or concerns about CIRD or your Hannah Pet’s health, please don’t hesitate to contact us. Their health is our top priority, and we are here to provide the best care possible.
