I called my vet today to make sure my Eskimo was vaccinated against distemper - I was sure he was since he is vaccinated for everything - including lepto - but I was worried due to all of the news reports about the wildlife suffering from distemper - and coming face to face with a raccoon today. I remember a few years ago when 12 dogs in Toronto died from Lepto - I met the survivor whose kidneys were shot. All is well - and I hope this is the case with all of the fuzzbutts living in affected areas.
