Methods to identify whether a dog has canine distemper:

1. The simplest method: use a canine distemper test paper to test to see if the dog has canine distemper.

2. Measure body temperature to see if there is bidirectional fever: Usually canine distemper is no different from a common cold at the beginning. Check the dog's temperature every six hours to see if it has a fever in the morning and evening and is better at noon. An increase in body temperature in the morning and evening is an obvious characteristic of canine distemper.

3. Cracked paw pads and nose: Many dogs in the early stages of canine distemper have this condition, which is very different from a cold.

4. Increased secretions from the nose and eyes: Although colds can cause runny noses and tears, the sticky secretions are not that much. People with canine distemper have so much secretions around their eyes that they can even cause irritation. Sticky eyes are also obviously different from a cold.

How to treat canine distemper:

1. Infusion treatment. In the early stage, nutrient solution is given to maintain the energy and nutrients the dog needs for the day.

2. Intravenous anti-inflammation, subcutaneous injection to relieve vomiting and diarrhea, atomization, and medication for the digestive tract.

3. Monoclonal antibodies and interferons are used to fight viruses.
