North Texans are not the only ones getting sick with the flu this season, dog flu outbreaks are hitting shelters and clinics across Dallas- Fort Worth.
Dallas Animal Services is in desperate need of help-- hundreds of large dogs from the shelter, who have all been exposed to URI will be up for adoption, foster and rescue placement. This weekend, they are offering a $150 incentive for anyone who will foster a dog for at least two weeks as a token of appreciation.
“All they need is just a place to go to and have some time to be treated,” Webber said. “Hopefully, if we get an amount of time with them out of the shelter and not exposed, then that’s where the fosters will be able to bring them back and into the clean population.”Most pets recover with attention, rest and supportive care, Webber said. It usually takes around one to two weeks for dogs to recover from infection.
