    I've seen it, and it really scares me. We live in Oklahoma, but still it seems like only a matter of time before it spreads. :(

    It may be extreme, but I'm keeping Emmy away from the dog park. While she still meets "friends" at the regular park and our neighborhood, I think avoiding large crowds of dogs seems safest for now.

    I hope they figure out a treatment/vaccine soon.

    It scares me too. I work at a vet, my boys go to work with me. The I l virus break out we have ever had is "kennel cough". We vaccinate against bordetella. So we have changed that vaccine to one that protects against more.

    I am keeping my boys out of our kennel. Not because I don't trust our kennels, but because I'm am over reactive mother :)
