What is dog CDV and what are its symptoms?

CDV is canine distemper caused by canine distemper virus, which is usually a rapidly spreading virus. Canine distemper occurs in dogs at all stages. Dogs that are two months old can reduce the risk of infection because they receive maternal antibodies. Dogs aged 4 to 12 months generally have weaker immune systems and higher morbidity rates, with mortality rates exceeding 50%. Dogs over two years old have lower morbidity rates.

    What are the symptoms of CDV?
  • The dog loses appetite or goes on hunger strike and is listless.
  • The temperature is very high, as high as 39°C-41°C, with watery discharge from the eyes and nose, and sneezing.
  • The diarrhea lasted for 1-3 days, and the body temperature gradually dropped to close to normal.
  • Symptoms such as increased body temperature, cough, purulent gums, purulent nasal discharge, etc. will appear around 5-17 days after the onset of disease. Please note that canine distemper has reached the mid-to-late stage.
  • The mid-term stage is accompanied by gastrointestinal diseases, including vomiting, diarrhea and hunger strike.
  • Mental depression and lethargy.
  • Nervous disorder, convulsions, foaming at the mouth.

     

     

     

    Canine distemper virus (CDV) is an important cause of respiratory, intestinal and neurological diseases in puppies. CDV can spread rapidly through direct contact between infected dogs and other dogs.

      How to Use the Canine Distemper Virus (CDV) Antigen Rapid Test Kit?

      The CDV Test Kit is a canine distemper test kit used to detect the presence of canine distemper virus (CDV) in canine samples. It includes a sample collection tube, a sample buffer, a sample collection swab, and an antibody test strip that detects the presence of CDV antigens. To use the kit, the CDV AG test kit instructions must be followed. Firstly, the sample is collected using the swab, placed into the sample collection tube, and mixed with the sample buffer. Then, the sample is applied to the antibody test strip and allowed to sit for 10 minutes. The results can be determined by the presence or absence of a colored line on the test strip. If a colored line appears, the sample is positive for CDV and the distemper test kit results must be confirmed with a veterinary laboratory test.

       

       

      It should be noted that canine distemper reoccurs. Owners should regularly check whether the dog's corners and soles are hard, whether there are calluses, and whether there are red bloodshot eyes. If this occurs, you can choose to use the Rapid Test Kit for a preliminary test to detect abnormalities. You need to go to the pet hospital for examination in time.
