TULSA, Okla. — Tulsa Animal Welfare closed its doors over the weekend to address one positive case of canine distemper virus and another suspected case.
On Monday, the city said the shelter followed all disinfection protocols and reopened and normal operating hours will continue for now.
Canine distemper virus does have a vaccine, but it is not immediately effective. As long as the virus is in circulation, their dogs are at risk.
