First identified in 1978, the Canine Parvovirus attacks the gastrointestinal tract, is highly contagious and can lead to heart tissue damage in puppies. The majority of deaths from Parvovirus occur within 2-3 days after initial symptoms, largely due to dehydration. Parvovirus is spread by contact with feces passed by infected dogs. Even trace amounts on shoes, pants legs, bare feet, paws, etc. can carry the contagion. The most common symptoms include …

* Lethargy
* Loss of appetite
* Fever
* Vomiting
* Severe Diarrhea (often bloody)

If your dog exhibits these symptoms, we urge you to contact your veterinarian immediately. While no known drug can eliminate the virus after infection, treatments to address primary symptoms in combination with antibiotics to prevent secondary infections can be effective in combating the virus if caught in the early stages. Be sure to follow your vet’s advice and Vaccinate your canine friends against this insidious virus.
