Hi! I have 3 puppies who were diagnosed with canine distemper 2 of them died and the other one name Lucky is trying to fight off the disease. He is just 2 months old and it is really heart breaking to see him suffer the disease. We thought that he would die but until now he is still fighting.

I just want to share my story to all of you and hope that this inspires all dog owners not to give up on their little babies.
