At one time it was felt every human and dog had valley fever at one time if you lived in AZ long enough...especially when the state was on fire with building new homes...as VG came from spores being dug up ..

I had a number of dogs come through rescue with Valley Fever...very treatable ..just takes time..VF will require treatment with an anti-fungal medication.
