Canine distemper will cause dogs to twitch and howl all night, which is a sign of the virus invading the body. Canine distemper virus is a virus that can invade the respiratory tract, gastrointestinal tract, and cranial nerves of dogs. When it invades the respiratory tract, dogs will have symptoms such as coughing and purulent nasal discharge. When it invades the gastrointestinal tract, dogs will have symptoms of abdominal pain, vomiting and diarrhea, and the pain will cause them to bark. When the cranial nerves are invaded, the dog will show great pain and begin to have neurological symptoms.

Methods to prevent canine distemper in dogs:

1. The most effective way is to vaccinate regularly to prevent canine distemper. For the health of the dog, the owner should take the dog for vaccination regularly to ensure that the dog has enough antibodies to resist the virus.

2. Make sure the dog’s living environment is clean and dry to avoid the growth of some viruses and bacteria.

3. When taking your dog out, do not come into contact with stray dogs, because stray dogs carry more viruses and bacteria, and do not let your dog come into contact with the excrement of other dogs.
