Thanks for the advice Jo, I'm going to keep them apart for 3 weeks. There seems to have been a lot of cases of KC around my area lately, so far Diesel has managed to avoid it so keeping my fingers crossed it'll stay that way.

There's loads 'darn sarf' too, it's not so good when you have some vets stating to their clients 'you can continue to walk around other dogs, just don't get too close' Not too clever IMO!

Really? My god that's really not clever!!! The vet Oscar saw told them to keep him well away from other dogs for a good while and thankfully the other dogs that have come down with it all go to the same vet. It just sounds so nasty....horrible hearing them hack and cough

Don't get me started, it's bally appalling! Thankfully I don't suffer the same bad advice from my vets!

Hope yours are starting to get better at the very least...lots of hugs from me...i've got long arms ya know!

*reaches out to hug Jo*

It's shocking that they don't discourage any contact with such an contagious thing.....keeping fingers crossed Oscar's over it really soon.
