Parvovirus Warning

Parvo is a potentially deadly virus that is extremely contagious. Symptoms include lethargy, vomiting, fever, and diarrhea. The virus is extremely hardy and can survive in contaminated soil for over a year. Puppies who have not received their full schedule of vaccinations are the most vulnerable to parvo. Veterinarians recommend vaccinations at 8, 12, and 16 weeks of age, a booster at one year and boosters every three years thereafter. Pet owners are encouraged to make sure their dogs' vaccinations are up to date. If your dog shows any of the symptoms of parvo, please seek veterinary care and keep them at home.
