Dogs & Swine Flu Solutions

One of the biggest stories in the news at the moment is  to do with swine flu. All over the world people are  succumbing to this potentially deadly virus. Now however people are shifting the emphasis over to animals and  questioning whether dogs should be getting the H1N1 Vaccine.

Only recently it came to light that a ferret got the swine flu after its owner came down with it. Also a couple of months later a cat contracted the virus as well.

Opportunities like this abound for veterinarian companies to make a quick buck and to that end there is an H1N1 Virus which can be given to animals.
