Why We Recommend Pet Insurance in Oregon?
Porcupines
In Oregon, the most common animal species to cause conflict with pets in the state are porcupines. If encountered, our pets may try to fight off a porcupine due to their natural instincts. Porcupines pose a major threat because they can impale our pets with quills that require a veterinarian and anesthesia to remove. Aside from the risk of quills, porcupines can also carry diseases that they transfer to our pets including rabies, distemper, and other viruses. While outdoors, always keep your dog on a leash to help prevent them from provoking an attack with a porcupine (or other wildlife) if you should encounter one. Porcupines are typically slow moving and nearsighted, so if you and your dog keep your distance, you shouldn’t be in much danger. A Porcupine will typically not attack unless they feel threatened.

Canine Distemper Virus
CDV is a viral disease that can affect the gastrointestinal, respiratory, and central nervous systems of pets. This virus spreads through air, food, infected bedding, toys, food bowls, etc. Higher chances are it being inhaled as it cannot survive on surfaces for long. It can attack our pet’s tonsils and lymph nodes. Diarrhea, fever, lack of interest in food, lethargy, paralysis, and seizures are some of the symptoms. Although this doesn’t have a direct cure, quick diagnosis and treatment can help stop it from being fatal. The state of Oregon has seen several cases of CDV in the recent past.
