> As you may have heard, an outbreak of Canine Influenza is affecting an alarming number of pets across the Bay Area. There are two strains of the canine flu affecting pets: H3N2 and H3N8. Both strains are highly contagious and can be easily passed between dogs who interact. Recent cases in the Bay Area have been confirmed as H3N2. (You can see recent news coverage of the outbreak here: https://www.nbcbayarea.com/news/local/South-Bay-Pet-Hospital-Reports-Two-Cases-of-Dog-Flu-468392123.html)
> 
> ***** For the safety of all our pet patients, Central Animal Hospital will be requiring dogs to be fully vaccinated for Canine Influenza before receiving grooming or boarding services, which means having received both the first vaccine and the second booster vaccine 2-4 weeks after the initial one. *****
> 
> Central Animal Hospital offers the Zoetis vaccine. This formulation is fully stocked with the bivalent CiV, which covers both the H3N2 and H3N8 strains.  Unlike the flu that humans experience, canine flu is not seasonal: your pet is susceptible year-round. If your dog has not yet been vaccinated, we strongly recommend scheduling an appointment for that immunization. Schedule your appointment online here: http://clientrax.appointmaster.com/binPatient/(S(oa3ubf45tqk5huznck0ys155))/appointmentRequestStart.aspx?AID=MCnzW8228LEU8LC46CKiY
> 
> If your dog is coughing, lethargic, or displaying changes in appetite, call our office immediately: (408) 377-4043. For information about the symptoms, diagnosis, and prevention of Canine Influenza, visit: https://www.avma.org/public/PetCare/Pages/CanineInfluenza.aspx
