i want to know if the NDV is at all harmful to dogs. Are there any other diseases that have the same symptoms as distemper but are not distemper?
NDV is not harmful to dogs. Yes, there are other diseases that may look like distemper. In the early stages, it is hard to tell distemper from kennel cough. It could also be mistaken for parvo or flu. And when a dog has seizures, you should know that there could be 40 or more causes for the seizure that are not distemper. You need to get a diagnosis from a vet. But because these treatments don’t work if you wait too long, you need a quick diagnosis. Dr. Sears recommends checking for the distemper virus in the bladder with a test called the Brush Border Smear: http://kindheartsinaction.com/2009/11/08/the-brush-border-smear/
