please help...... :(

I don't think that the virus is going to spread, I heard on the radio that the chickens had the virus since a year ago since they were running some experiments ...

Anyways if it starts spreding you shouldn't worry just about your dog but yourself. Try not to store water in your garden , use screens in your windows, buy the electric tennis racket and let your dog out during the day, not at night.

The most effective way is to keep your dog inside...

Having his immune system in balance can help. You want your immune system in balance - not boosted.
