Speaker: Dr. Rachael Wooten, Medical Director, One Tail at a Time

This presentation equips foster caregivers and adopters with essential knowledge about common infectious diseases in dogs, with a focus on practical tips for prevention and management. Covering topics like parasites, distemper, parvo, leptospirosis, canine infectious respiratory disease complex, rabies, heartworm, and tick-borne diseases, attendees will learn what each disease is, how it spreads, and whether it poses a risk to humans. We'll discuss key signs to watch for, the severity and prognosis of each disease, and steps to prevent infection in pets and their human families.
