Facing increasing intake numbers and the constant threat of infectious disease? If it seems like dogs keep getting sick no matter what you do, join KSMP Outreach Veterinarian Dr. Chumkee Aziz and learn steps you can take today to prevent and manage Canine Infectious Respiratory Disease (CIRD) in your shelter.

With proven isolation and quarantine protocols, your team can create crucial room to breathe, ensuring more dogs stay healthy and ready for adoption.

By the end of this webinar, you’ll be ready to:

• Pinpoint key risk factors that fuel CIRD spread and severity in shelters, and know when and how to use isolation, quarantine, and foster care strategies to manage CIRD effectively.
• Evaluate and apply the latest vaccination recommendations for CIRD prevention, while recognizing their effectiveness and limitations in shelter settings.
• Create treatment plans for CIRD cases, focusing on choosing the right antibiotics and using them responsibly, and knowing when to run tests.
• Understand how managing your shelter’s capacity, using good housing, and reducing stress can help prevent CIRD.

From RVTs to DVMs and beyond, everyone in the shelter has the power to have a big impact on animal health. CIRD doesn’t have to be status quo!
