2. Implement health defense measures, conduct regular disinfection, regular deworming, and strengthen the feeding and management of dogs.

3. When taking your dog out, do not come into contact with stray dogs, because stray dogs carry more viruses and bacteria, and do not let your dog come into contact with the excrement of other dogs.
