| Saw this today. Apparently dogs in my area are getting sick and dying from some kind of mystery virus. They don't know what it is or how it's being transmitted. Super scary.

| This is really scary. I heard about this virus in Ohio about a month ago. It's only a matter of time before it comes to Manhattan. That will be the day that Diz has to stop daycare and the dog park. I hope you and Bode are able to stay safe and avoid it! |

Very scary! I'm with you, if it comes even remotely close to Maine, no more daycare, no more anything for my two!

| This is going to make me so paranoid and over analyze anything out of the ordinary Bode does. |

| I was about to say we were getting posts non-stop about this virus in Ohio. They thought it was the Circovirus here, I don't like how they said 'last year' when it was happening last month!!
The advice I've given to the Ohio members is if you see any of the symptoms, abdominal pain, bloody diarrhea, vomiting, lethargy, to get to the vet ASAP. I don't go to the vet normally for lethargy but since this virus kills so quickly I'm not taking the chance. So keep your eyes peeled.

| Hey Megan, what are they going to do about Nationals if they don't have this "virus" figured out, or is it too soon to tell? |

| Good question - I'm sure we will still have nationals. Apparently, the confirmed cases occurred in SE Michigan, Nationals will be in Midland and it's probably going to be colder there and it's a bit away from the confirmed cases. |

I've been meaning to ask, what would you suggest to boost that exactly? I already do coconut oil 5x a week and ACV 2x a week, not sure what else I could be adding to combat this virus at least for now? Although personally I'm not too worried, I'd just like to boost them just in case. - Was thinking of buying Kirkland's Vitamin E 400 IU Capsules but not sure if that's a good brand or not. |

| Kirkland is fine - 400 I.U. every other day is good for prevention. Vitamin C crystals are an easy way to dose Vitamin C as well. |
