Distemper poses a significant threat to unvaccinated street dogs, often leading to fatal outcomes. This viral infection attacks their respiratory, digestive, and central nervous systems, making it a formidable foe for these animals.

A homeless dog suffering from distemper had gone untreated for weeks before collapsing by the roadside. Despite her dire condition, she managed a hopeful wag of her tail, hoping for a chance at rescue.

When a rescue team discovered the ailing dog, they recognized she was in critical condition but decided to give her a fighting chance. For two weeks, she received dedicated care, including antibiotics and fluids, aimed at restoring her health.

Although she was in extreme pain, the dog seemed appreciative of the attention and care she received from humans for the first time in her life.

Day by day, she showed signs of improvement. The moment she regained enough strength to stand on her own and walk again was a heartwarming and uplifting experience for the entire caregiving team.
