A mystery dog illness has been found in at least 10 states. The illness that either kills dogs or gives them infectious coughs and pneumonia has been found in Oregon, Colorado, New Hampshire, California, Indiana, Illinois, Washington, Idaho, Georgia and Florida. The atypical canine infectious respiratory disease (CIRDC) can last 6-8 weeks or longer and is minimally or not responsive to antibiotics. The acute pneumonia can become rapidly severe and lead to poor outcomes in 24-36 hours. Keep a close eye on your dog if it becomes ill; and keep your dog away from large groups of unknown dogs. Be sure your dog is up-to-date with vaccinations such as canine influenza, Bordetella and parainfluenza. 121 days until spring. Breakfast - Protein bar Lunch - Macaroni bean soup (so good) Dessert/Snack - Blueberry muffin and decaf coffee Dinner - Chicken nuggets and potato salad What did you eat yesterday?

That sounds like Canine Covid. But seriously, that is terrible that so many dogs are falling ill to this. Hopefully they come up with a vaccine.

I hope so. I'm glad I don't have dogs anymore. I would be worried sick about them.

@LindaOHio Our son is awfully careful where he takes his dogs for walks, what trees the dog stops at to sniff, as they can pick up alot of germs right there.

@Juliaacv What horrid things to have to think about. Now I am glad that I insist that almost always Rufus dog must pay attention to me, head up, and just walk when he is on a walk.

Spring is slowly getting closer, but we got to deal with the very cold weather first, sadly. Nuggets sound good. I forget what I had....

Yesterday, I had egg muffins with little bits of sausage, spinach, and a tad bit of cheddar cheese. I also had popcorn, carrots, and chili in a flour tortilla.

I'm sorry dogs are becoming ill with that disease and dying. The soup sounds good. I had salmon and a baked potato for supper.

@LindaOHio I wish I do. Maybe that's why I'm happy to dog sit when asked.

That's terrible about that. Hopefully they can learn more about it. For dinner we had bratwurst with buttered carrots and chicken mei fun on the side.

@LindaOHio Governments might be manufacturing them. Who knows? I used to not be so conspiracy theory oriented, but SO much to not trust anymore in the world.

will they find a cure for the dog illness? For breakfast, I had a cinnamon muffin, banana, and cottage cheese For lunch, I had a chipped ham ( a Pittsburgh thing) sandwich with mayo, cheese, and pickles For dinner, I had a salad from a bag and added the rest of the rotisserie chicken I bought Wednesday and added shredded mozzarella cheese, and topped it off with Ranch dressing as my sister gave me a huge bottle Your meals sound scrumptious!

@LindaOHio so do I. I worry about the poor innocent dogs. I know you said it wasn't in PA but I still worry for the dogs of the state and for my doggie nieces who are the sweetest dogs ever. Even the one who is part black lab and pit bull. She is nothing like a pit bull. She is very nice! and my other doggie niece whole is a full-bred German Shepherd
