Since 2017

Helping save puppies.

Distemper is a heartbreaking fight, and you are not alone.

We built this space with love and empathy, to give you the vital information you need right now. Here, every resource is rigorously filtered to offer you real, active hope and guide you through this difficult road, protecting the one you love most.

Our story

In June 2017, our dog Toffy caught distemper. Sadly, no veterinarian had a favorable prognosis for him, and there was — and still isn't — a standardized treatment protocol. Toffy survived, and his story became a testimony that helped others, which is why in 2025 we decided to create this site: to share the whole process, treatments, and advice that we managed to gather and put together here together with professionals. All the content is designed to help you save your dog.

What drives us

Our mission

To help every person who wants to save their dog survive canine distemper, giving them the tools to increase their chances of success in this fight. Through this project we also want to contribute to rescue shelters — you can find information about this in our transparency section.

What we offer

A PROFESSIONAL, APPLIED APPROACH

DistemperScience is an educational platform for dog owners looking for reliable, structured information about recovery from canine distemper. It does not replace professional veterinary care — the two need to work hand in hand.

How much experience we have

Ever since our dog Toffy caught distemper, we've been carrying out intensive, ongoing research into the most effective treatments proposed by scientists and veterinarians around the world.

Where we're based

The legal address of this project is Pueblo Libre Mz L1, dpto 2, Uchumayo, Arequipa, Peru.
