Shelter Reopens After Distemper Outbreak

Pima Animal Care Center is cautiously reopening after a distemper outbreak — cats and a dog section called Harry’s Haven are back, while the East Side location also reopened with clear tests. Officials trace the outbreak to two infected strays, despite vaccinations, and warn that high intake volumes — especially before the Fourth of July — make containment tough. They’re asking the public to help find lost dogs before bringing them in, since most are found nearby. Deep cleaning and close monitoring continue as the shelter works to restore normal operations without risking another outbreak. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
