how do the owners prevent distemper?

Since distemper is a highly infectious and highly fatal viral disease, how do the owners prevent #distemper?
1️⃣ The most important factor is vaccinations. Begin vaccinations early (6 weeks old), and make sure your dog has the full course of 3 vaccines. Make sure you vaccinate with a registered veterinarian, and the vaccine batch and date are recorded on a vaccination card.
2️⃣ Prevent your dog from being in close contact with other puppies. When your puppy is young it is highly susceptible, and even vaccination does not give 100% protection. If your dog has distemper, it is infectious, and should be isolated from any susceptible dogs.
3️⃣ Make sure your puppy is fed the right amount of the right type of food. Make sure it is not allowed to get too cold or too hot, and has fresh water available at all times. These things help keep the immune system of the puppy strong and functional.
4️⃣ Take care where you get your puppy from. If there are any animals in the environment that have discharge from the nose or eyes or are coughing, chances are that the environment will be distemper positive.
If you suspect distemper, see your vet quickly. Early treatment will help keep the puppy strong, and prevent early pneumonia or dehydration.
