DISTEMPER

We have recently seen an increase in suspected and confirmed cases of canine distemper in our area.

Distemper is a highly contagious viral disease that can affect a dog's respiratory, digestive and nervous systems. Sadly, it is often fatal, especially in unvaccinated puppies and dogs.

⚠️ Watch for these signs:
• Fever
• Runny nose or eyes
• Coughing
• Loss of appetite
• Vomiting or diarrhoea
• Lethargy
• Tremors or seizures
• Muscle twitching
• Disorientation or circling

🚨 If your dog shows any of these symptoms, seek veterinary attention immediately.

💉 The good news? Distemper is preventable.
Vaccinating your dog is the best protection against this devastating disease.

✅ Ensure your pet's vaccinations are up to date.
✅ Keep puppies away from unvaccinated dogs until fully vaccinated.
✅ Maintain good hygiene by regularly cleaning bowls, bedding and living areas.

Please help us protect our community's pets by sharing this information with friends, family and neighbours.

🐾 Vaccinate. Protect. Prevent.

In memory of Linda Louise Swain, Edge Financial Group recently donated R10 000 to the Animal Anti-Cruelty League in Port Elizabeth.

Linda was a passionate advocate for animals and cared deeply about the work the AACL does within our community. This donation honours her compassion, kindness, and the lasting impact she had on the lives of so many animals in need.

Thank you to the team at the AACL for the incredible work you continue to do every day 🐾
