Nurse!

La misteriosa enfermedad ha afectado a perros en más de una docena de estados y ha provocado graves enfermedades, puede -- solo puede -- vislumbrar una esperanza de contención.

Un golden retriever de 5 años llamado Ike se enfermó cerca de septiembre durante un espectáculo canino. Los dueños llevaron rápidamente a Ike al veterinario, donde le diagnosticaron la enfermedad que tiene a los dueños de perros en pánico -- un complejo de enfermedades respiratorias infecciosas caninas.

Ike fue llevado a un hospital veterinario y puesto en cuarentena. Con esta enfermedad, los perros pueden pasar rápidamente de tener tos a desarrollar una neumonía potencialmente mortal.

Se le administró a Ike un "antibiótico de último recurso" llamado cloramfenicol, que combate las infecciones bacterianas. La familia del perro le contó a ABC7 que, en cuestión de horas, ya no respiraba con dificultad.

La dueña, Becky Oliver, afirmó: "Es un antibiótico de último recurso muy, muy potente, pero es lo que lo salvó. De lo contrario, ya no estaría aquí".

Hasta ahora, las autoridades no han comentado sobre la eficacia del antibiótico.

La enfermedad se ha estado propagando y se ha encontrado en California, Oregón, Indiana, Illinois, Washington, Idaho, Nevada y en varios estados del noreste.

The mysterious illness that has caused dogs in more than a dozen states to get extremely sick may -- just may -- show promise of containment.

A 5-year-old golden retriever named Ike got sick during a dog road show, and this was way back in September.  The owners rushed Ike to the vet, and he was diagnosed with the disease that has dog owners in a panic -- canine infectious respiratory disease complex.

Ike was taken to a vet hospital and quarantined. Dogs can quickly go from a cough to life-threatening pneumonia with this disease.

The dog was given a "last-resort antibiotic," called chloramphenicol, which fights bacterial infections. The family of the dog told ABC7, within hours his breathing was no longer labored.

The owner, Becky Oliver, said, "It's a very, very strong last-resort antibiotic, but it's what saved him. Otherwise, he would not be here."

So far, officials, officials have not commented on the efficacy of the antibiotic.

The disease has been spreading ... it's been found in California, Oregon, Indiana, Illinois, Washington, Idaho, Nevada and in various states around the Northeast.

Derek Chauvin's family is angry they learned from the media their imprisoned son was stabbed and not from prison officials.

Carolyn Pawlenty, the mother of the cop who murdered George Floyd, told Alpha News, "How the hell do these news agencies know and his own mother doesn't even know?" She adds the prison had an emergency contact number -- her number -- but no one called.

She went on ... “I can’t even think what to say. I haven’t been to bed and made a path in my kitchen and living room floor by pacing."

Chauvin’s attorney, Bill Mohrman, says he got involved and tried calling the prison for information but hasn't heard back.

And another Chauvin lawyer, Gregory M. Erickson, slammed prison officials for its radio silence ... “It appears to be indicative of a poorly run facility and indicates how Derek’s assault was allowed to happen.”

Erickson added, “How the family members who are in charge of Derek’s decisions regarding his personal medical care and his emergency contact were not informed after his stabbing further indicates the institution’s poor procedures and lack of institutional control.”

As we reported ... Chauvin was stabbed in the federal prison in Arizona where he is currently serving a nearly 21-year sentence after pleading guilty to a federal charge of violating Floyd's civil rights.

Chauvin is in stable condition after he was assaulted Friday at the Federal Correctional Institution in Tucson. The stabbing was reportedly carried out by another inmate.

Infamous ex-cop Derek Chauvin -- who was convicted of murdering George Floyd in Minneapolis -- was stabbed in federal prison and rushed to a hospital, but his injuries were not considered life-threatening, TMZ has confirmed.

A rep for Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison tells TMZ ... Chauvin was listed in stable condition after he was assaulted Friday at the Federal Correctional Institution in Tucson, Arizona.

In a statement, Ellison said, "I am sad to hear that Derek Chauvin was the target of violence. He was duly convicted of his crimes and, like any incarcerated individual, he should be able to serve his sentence without fear of retaliation or violence."

Ellison prosecuted Chauvin in the state murder case after Floyd's 2020 death.

The Bureau of Prisons also issued a statement without naming Chauvin, saying an "incarcerated person" was attacked at the prison around 12:30 PM yesterday. It was unclear who the suspect was, but the Associated Press reported it was another inmate.

Prison staff responded and brought the situation under control while performing "life-saving measures" on the victim, the BOP said, adding that no employees were injured.

The victim was taken to the hospital, where doctors were treating and evaluating him.

As we previously reported, Chauvin was convicted of Floyd's slaying in a Minnesota state court and sentenced to more than 22 years in prison. He also pleaded guilty to a separate federal charge of violating Floyd's civil rights and was given a 20-year term, which he's currently serving at the Arizona prison.

The murder of Floyd was recorded on cell phone video, which was circulated around the world, shocking the public consciousness.

The disturbing nine-and-a-half-minute clip showed Chauvin pressing his knee against the neck of Floyd as he lay helpless on the ground in Minneapolis. Floyd repeatedly cried out that he couldn't breathe, but Chauvin refused to take away his knee until it was too late.

Hip hop pioneer Rob Base is switching up the lyrics to his classic jam, "It Takes Two," for an undeniably great cause ... raising awareness for diabetes.

The proud NYC native recently partnered with 2 pharmaceutical giants, Boehringer Ingelheim and Eli Lilly and Company, to update his 1988 hit with lyrics like, "People with no symptoms to show, could have kidney disease -- and not know!!!"

According to research, more than 35 million American adults are suffering from chronic kidney disease, and up to 90% of them are totally unaware they're even affected. 😬

Rob famously earned his hip hop stripes operating as a duo alongside his trusted DJ E-Z Rock, who passed away from diabetic complications in 2014, when he was just 46.

Rob, now 56, and having lived through the loss of his friend and musical partner, is urging everyone not to wait for signs and get their kidneys tested immediately.

The annual Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade featured tons of animated characters floating through New York City ... with balloons for SpongeBob, Baby Yoda and a host of others.

Snoopy, an oldie but goodie, made his trek through the skies above the parade route ... with Woodstock hitching a ride on Snoopy's matching green hat.

Spongebob SquarePants had a buddy riding with him too ... his balloon featured his pet snail, Gary.

Baby Yoda floated in from a galaxy far, far way ... and Grogu was looking super cute as always.

Kung Fu Panda made an appearance too ... along with one of the Minions and Chase from Paw Patrol.

There were holiday classics too ... including a massive turkey float and another with Santa Claus and some helpers.

Kel Mitchell and Kenan Thompson rode on the "Good Burger 2" float ... only weeks after first told you Kel was hospitalized in Los Angeles.

We saw Kel at the premiere for the movie sequel last week, and it looks like he's recovered from whatever it was that required medical attention.

As we reported ... pro-Palestine protestors tried disrupting the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade ... with some demonstrators being arrested.

El desfile anual Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade contó con toneladas de personajes animados flotando a través de la ciudad de Nueva York, con globos de Bob Esponja, Baby Yoda y muchos más.

Snoopy hizo su caminata por los cielos mientras el desfile avanzaba por su ruta, con Woodstock haciendo autostop en el sombrero verde a juego de Snoopy.

Bob Esponja también tuvo un amigo montando con él. Su globo contó con su mascota Gary.

El bebé Yoda llegó flotando desde una galaxia muy, muy lejana, y Grogu se veía súper lindo como siempre.

Kung Fu Panda hizo una aparición también, junto con uno de los Minions y Chase de Paw Patrol.

Hubo espacio para clásicos de esta temporada, como una carroza de pavo y otra con Santa Claus junto a algunos ayudantes.

Kel Mitchell y Kenan Thompson montaron en la carroza de "Good Burger 2", apenas unas semanas después de que el primero fuera hospitalizado en L.A.

Vimos a Kel en el estreno de la secuela de la película la semana pasada y parece que se recuperó de lo que fuera que requirió atención médica.

Como también informamos, algunos manifestantes pro-Palestina trataron de interrumpir el desfile del Día de Acción de Gracias de Macy... y algunos de ellos fueron detenidos.

Swerve Stickland and "Hangman" Adam Page used everything from a barbed wire-wrapped chair to a heavy-duty staple gun to beat the s*** out of each other during last weekend's AEW match. We asked Swerve how he felt after the bloody match, and what part was most painful.

Swerve joined Mojo Muhtadi on "TMZ Sports" TV show (airs nightly on FS1) ... and talked about the Texas Deathmatch at AEW's Full Gear, which Strickland ultimately won. But, he paid a price.

"It was that Hangman Moonsault with the chair and barbed wire. Hangman is a deceptively massive man in itself. Receiving a Moonsault from him at that height and that weight and that speed and velocity already takes a lot out of you," Swerve told us.

"Add in a metal chair wrapped in like probably hundreds of yards of barbed wire wrapped in a spool around it, it just scraped across me, along with Hangman landing across me. Out of all the brutal stuff we did in that match, that was probably the one that stuck out."

With the big match under his belt and Strickland's stock being at an all-time high, we asked him what was next.

Swerve mentioned competing in the upcoming Continental Classic tournament ... but also has his sights set on something more historic.

"I feel like I catapulted myself as one of the top guys in the industry. And I said this before, earlier in the year, I really feel I can be the first African American AEW world champion."

Great matches require two wrestlers putting in work ... and Strickland spoke very highly of his opponent. In fact, he thinks "Hangman" Adam Page could be this generation's Mick Foley.

Swerve Stickland y "Hangman" Adam Page usaron de todo, desde una silla envuelta en alambre de púas hasta una pistola de grapas de alta resistencia para golpearse mutuamente durante el combate de AEW del fin de semana pasado. Le preguntamos a Swerve cómo se sintió después del sangriento combate y qué parte fue la más dolorosa.

Swerve se unió a Mojo Muhtadi en el programa de televisión "TMZ Sports" (se emite todas las noches en FS1), y habló sobre el Texas Deathmatch en Full Gear de AEW, que Strickland finalmente ganó. Pero, pagó un precio.

"Fue ese Hangman Moonsault con la silla y el alambre de púas. Hangman es un hombre engañosamente grande. Recibir un Moonsault de él a esa altura y ese peso y esa velocidad y rapidez ya te quita mucho", nos dijo Swerve.

"Si a eso le añadimos una silla de metal envuelta en cientos de metros de alambre de púas que se enrollaba en una bobina a su alrededor, simplemente me raspó, y Hangman aterrizó sobre mí. De todas las cosas brutales que hicimos en ese combate, esa fue probablemente la que más me llamó la atención".

Con el gran combate en su haber y la cotización de Strickland en máximos históricos, le preguntamos qué era lo siguiente.

Swerve mencionó competir en el próximo torneo Continental Classic, pero también tiene la vista puesta en algo más histórico.

"Siento que me he catapultado como uno de los mejores del sector. Y dije esto antes, a principios de año, realmente siento que puedo ser el primer afroamericano AEW campeón del mundo".

Los grandes combates requieren que dos luchadores se esfuercen, y Strickland habló muy bien de su oponente. De hecho, cree que "Hangman" Adam Page podría ser el Mick Foley de esta generación.

12:54 PM PT -- It's being reported the 2 people inside the vehicle died.

12:11 PM PT -- Video has now surfaced allegedly showing the moment the vehicle slammed into the border checkpoint, immediately bursting into flames. One witness told a local outlet the vehicle was traveling at a very high rate of speed. Injuries are still unknown.

A car inexplicably blew up at the U.S.-Canadian border near Niagara Falls -- and now, all points of entry are closed as law enforcement swarms the scene to investigate.

The explosion happened Wednesday as a vehicle was crossing into America from up North, and happened at a key checkpoint linking the two countries -- The Rainbow Bridge ... where it went up in flames.

Of course, there was a shockwave too ... and people filmed the aftermath in utter disbelief. Local and federal officials -- including the FBI, are currently on scene. It's unclear who might've been in the car and what sort of injuries were sustained, but the damage to the vehicle involved is significant.

New York Gov. Kathy Hochul issued a statement in the immediate aftermath, saying ... "At my direction, the New York State Police is actively working with the FBI Joint Terrorism Task Force to monitor all points of entry to New York. I am traveling to Buffalo to meet with law enforcement and emergency responders and will update New Yorkers when more information becomes available."

The nearby Buffalo Niagara International Airport is also beefing up its security protocols out of an abundance of caution.

12:54 PM PT -- Se informa que las dos personas dentro del vehículo murieron.

12:11 PM PT -- Ahora ha aparecido un video que supuestamente muestra el momento en que el vehículo chocó contra el puesto de control fronterizo, estallando inmediatamente en llamas. Un testigo dijo a un medio local que el vehículo viajaba a una velocidad muy alta. Aún se desconocen los heridos.

Un carro explotó inexplicablemente en la frontera entre EE.UU. y Canadá cerca de las Cataratas del Niágara y ahora, todos los puntos de entrada están cerrados mientras la ley llega a la escena para investigar.

La explosión ocurrió el miércoles mientras un vehículo estaba cruzando a Estados Unidos desde el norte. Esto ocurrió en un punto de control clave que une a los dos países, El puente del arco iris, donde se incendió vehículo.

Por supuesto, hubo una onda de choque y la gente filmó las secuelas en la incredulidad absoluta. Funcionarios locales y federales  —incluyendo al FBI— se encuentran actualmente en la escena. No está claro quién podría haber estado en el carro y si sufrió lesiones, pero el daño al vehículo es significativo.

La gobernadora de Nueva York, Kathy Hochul, emitió un comunicado inmediatamente después, diciendo: "Bajo mi dirección, la Policía del Estado de Nueva York está trabajando activamente con el Grupo de Trabajo Conjunto contra el Terrorismo del FBI para vigilar todos los puntos de entrada a Nueva York. Estoy viajando a Buffalo para reunirme con las fuerzas del orden y los equipos de respuesta a emergencias y pondré al día a los neoyorquinos cuando dispongamos de más información".

El cercano Aeropuerto Internacional de Búfalo Niágara también está reforzando sus protocolos de seguridad por precaución.

Hay una misteriosa enfermedad que afecta a perros de todo el país y que puede ser mortal si los dueños no tienen cuidado. Por eso, un veterinario tiene muchos buenos consejos que ofrecer.

Dr. Lindsey Ganzer, un veterinario de larga data y CEO de North Springs Veterinary Referral Center en Colorado, explicó lo que la gente puede hacer por sus perros como esta enfermedad inexplicable circula por los EE.UU. y pone doggos bajo el clima.

Los síntomas de esta misteriosa aflicción son similares a lo que los seres humanos podrían considerar un resfriado común, pero en este caso, tienden a durar mucho más tiempo y en algunos casos raros incluso han llevado a la muerte del perro.

La Dra. Ganzer tiene una buena explicación de lo que esta nueva enfermedad es y lo que no es. En particular, ella dice que si bien comienza por parecerse a una simple tos. Puede terminar tomando un giro un poco más siniestro, avanzando hacia la neumonía si no se trata.

There's a mystery illness going around affecting dogs all over the country -- and it can turn deadly if owners aren't careful -- which is why one vet has a lot of good advice to offer.

Dr. Lindsey Ganzer -- a longtime vet and the CEO of North Springs Veterinary Referral Center in Colorado -- explained what people can do for their pooches as this inexplicable disease circulates throughout the U.S. and puts doggos under the weather.

The symptoms for this mystery affliction are similar to what humans might consider a common cold -- but in this case ... they tend to linger a lot longer, and in some rare cases -- have even led to doggy death.

Dr. Ganzer has a good explanation for what this new illness is and what it isn't -- notably, she says while it starts out by resembling kennel cough ... it can end up taking a slightly more sinister turn by plaguing canines with pneumonia, if it goes untreated.

One of the greatest right arms in the history of sports no longer works.

Drew Brees made the shocking revelation this week ... admitting he can't throw overhand anymore.

"Look," the future Hall of Famer said on Tuesday on ESPN Radio. "I'll let you in on a little fact. I don't throw with my right arm anymore. My right arm does not work. So, when I throw in the backyard right now, I throw left-handed."

Brees said on the show it all stems from the devastating shoulder injury he suffered while playing for the San Diego Chargers during the 2005 season.

You'll recall, following a fumble, Brees fell awkwardly on his throwing arm ... dislocating his shoulder and tearing up several important pieces of his body in the process.

Docs were able to fix him ... and he went on to have one of the best NFL careers ever with the New Orleans Saints -- but he said he's reeling from it all now.

The former quarterback said he's suffering from a "degenerative shoulder" ... as well as "all kinds of arthritic changes."

Brees then revealed if he could somehow get it to work -- he "would absolutely still be playing."

The 44-year-old added that, thankfully, he is able to be somewhat athletic with his right arm still ... saying at least pickleball isn't out of the equation at this point.

"I can play pickleball because it's below the waist," he said.

Aaron Rodgers feels badly about how things played out for benched backup Zach Wilson ... admitting he's "disappointed and sad" the young quarterback didn't get to sit back and learn from him this season.

The former No. 2 overall pick recently lost his starting gig to Tim Boyle after struggling to find a rhythm as Rodgers recovers from his Achilles injury ... and during the four-time MVP's appearance on the "Pat McAfee Show," he said he has guilt about the situation.

"I feel for Zach, I love Zach." Rodgers said. "Zach's such a great kid and I do think he still has a bright future in the league."

Rodgers believes it's more fair to throw blame on the whole team than just on Zach ... but ultimately, it was time to find a spark on offense.

"This is disappointing, I have some personal guilt around the whole thing," he added. "I mean, I'm pissed I wasn't able to play and frustrated that if I was out there, and I feel like I'd be playing well, there would be obviously different narratives around our team and Zach would have the opportunity to learn and grow and see what it looks like without the pressure on and being able to sit in those meetings and go through the season and just kind of watch me and my process."

Rodgers said the team will continue to support both Zach and Tim moving forward ... but reiterated it's not all Wilson's fault the team is sitting at 4-6.

The teenage son of "Teen Mom" star Jenelle Evans is hospitalized after running away once again, and this time Child Protective Services is taking custody of Jace ... TMZ has learned.

Sources with direct knowledge tell us, Jenelle's 14-year-old son ran away from his grandmother's home Saturday, and wasn't found until 11:45 PM Sunday. Jace had previously run away from Jenelle's home several times and was placed under the care of Jenelle's mom, Barbara.

Our sources say Jace is now in a hospital, and CPS will place him in foster care as he's run away so many times.

Our sources say Jace, was recently busted for vaping at his school ... and when grandma found out, she took away his phone. We're told Barbara had been advised by Jenelle, CPS and the foster care team not to give Jace a phone in the first place, but she thought he could handle it.

When Barbara took the phone away as punishment, we're told Jace split, prompting this latest search for the teen.

Running away has become a trend with Jace ... as we've reported, this is at least the fourth time he's run away from home ... including the time in September when he slipped out a window on the same day Jenelle's husband, David Eason, is accused of roughing him up.

Remember ... Jace spent most of his childhood in Barbara's care, but Jenelle regained custody earlier this year, only for him to run away from home a bunch of times, and end up at Barbara's house again.

As we told you a couple weeks ago, Jace is keeping his distance from Jenelle and David.
