There is no specific treatment to infectious canine hepatitis, however treatment for the symptoms caused by infectious canine hepatitis may be helpful. After so long of having the disease, plasma or whole blood transfusions if the dog is severely ill. After 7-10 days the disease should be gone; if not or worsened, take to vet.

Prevention

To prevent infectious canine hepatitis, a vaccination called Nobiac Canine 1-DAPPv can be given, as well as a vaccination for CAV-2 prevention. Both will help with immunity.
