dog has the measels

[honsbeek]

Hello,

I have genuine concerns about my new pup (dachshund, light brown shortfur). We got it last week and now it's 9 weeks old and we had to bring it back to the shop because it was sneezing all the time and he didn't really have an appetite either.

The shop had the dog brought to the hospital and they concluded that it had
"The Measels". My questions to you is :

At 9 weeks and this pup being diagnosed with the measels, is it almost sure that the dog will die, or will never make a full recovery? I am here in South Korea where they truly care for the dogs and have good vets, but could you tell some more things about dogs (pups) having the measels and how to go about treating it??

We only had the pup for a week at home and we've grown so attached to it, I would be totally devastating if he would have to die.

Thank you so much

I have never in my life ever heard of a dog having the measles! Unless Measles means something else where you're from. You have me stumped but I hope your pup is ok!
