Grain-Free Diets:  Good or Evil?

Tularemia

A recent report by the Illinois State Public Health Lab has released that an autopsy on a rabbit from the Tinley Park area tested positive for Tularemia, a bacterial infection that can be transmitted to our pets as well as has a human health concern.

If you’re pet has been exposed or you suspect has ingested a rabbit do not be alarmed, not all animals carry Tularemia and many pets who are exposed never become symptomatic or the symptoms are self limiting.

Signs of Tularemia tend to develop within the first 3-5 days of exposure. Clinical signs to monitor for are eye infections, draining abscesses, enlarged lymph nodes and can be accompanied by a fever.
