Mystery Illness Killing Dogs at HAWS
A mystery illness is killing dogs at HAWS in Waukesha. The illness brings on high fever and a quick death. Dog adoptions are on hold until the illness is stopped.
An outbreak of calicivirus at the Washington County Humane Society killed many cats last year. It’s so sad to see these animals dying before they could find a loving home.
Thankfully calicivirus has a vaccine. All of my cats have been vaccinated. Ask your vet about the calici vaccine; I think it was around $70 for the two shots needed. A $70 vaccine or losing my cats… that was a no-brainer.
