VACCINES/IMMUNITY

PLEASE BE AWARE that a puppy is NOT immune until after the 15wk shot, until that time they are building their own immune system.

Please do NOT take them to DOG PARKS, or public areas with a lot of dogs.

PET STORES (that allow dogs inside) or buy items that are  not wrapped from pet stores that allow dogs in, and if in a store or allows a lot of dogs in, take off & wash your shoes when you get home- see below.

VET OFFICES - must be in a carrier - do not let them walk on the floor or in the area directly outside the vet clinic.. this is generally where the "sick" dogs are asked to wait..  take off your shoes prior to coming back into your house and rinse soles & bottom of carrier with 10% bleach solution - as a precaution.. I was in the vet office when someone brought in a lethargic dog  and they refused to leave the waiting room - said their dog had flea anemia, and ignored the signs and the requests of reception staff. their puppy  tested positive for parvo.  The germs were all over the waiting area, floor, & down the hall where they carried the dog.. know a breeder that came home from the vets and took off her shoes, her puppies started chewing/carrying her shoes and 1wk later had parvo..  may be just a one in a million chance you "follow" that dog down the hall, but its a risk.

 

AUSSIE DRUG SENSITIVITY

 

http://www.vetmed.wsu.edu/depts%2DVCPL/

See the above link for detailed information,

multi-drug sensitivity in AUSSIES. The problem is due to a mutation in the multi-drug resistance gene (MDR1). This gene encodes a protein, P-glycoprotein, that is responsible for pumping many drugs and other toxins out of the brain. Dogs with the mutant gene can not pump some drugs out of the brain as a normal dog would, which may result in abnormal neurologic signs. The result may be an illness requiring an extended hospital stay--or even death.
PUppies can be tested to determine if they carry this "mutation".. but why take the chance.. ??

PLEASE TAKE THIS LIST INTO YOUR VET FOR YOUR PUPPIES FILE-
 

Problem Drugs

Drugs that have been documented, or are strongly suspected to cause problems in dogs with the  MDR1 mutation:

Potential Problem Drugs

The following drugs may potentially cause problems when given to dogs that have the mutation. Biochemical studies have shown that this gene has the potential to act on over 50 different drugs.
