What are the early symptoms of distemper in Alaska

What are the symptoms of early distemper in Alaska? In the early stages of distemper, Alaska will have a runny nose, so many owners will mistake the dog for a simple cold, which will cause Alaska to miss the best treatment period. Once distemper reaches the middle and late stages, Alaska’s nose will flow with a lot of purulent secretions, causing difficulty in breathing. The early symptoms of distemper are also the rise in body temperature and fever-like symptoms of the flu, but usually after two or three days Alaska’s body temperature will drop. However, owners should not take this lightly, because once distemper has progressed to the middle stage, Alaska’s temperature will rise once again. The fleshy pads of the paws and nose of an Alaskan Sheltie with distemper will be dry and cracked. Note that a similar condition can occur when a dog has a cold or fever. Therefore, when an Alaskan sled dog has this condition, you as a parent should not ignore it carelessly.
