🚨🐶 PROTECT YOUR PET DOG: Parvo Outbreak Found In Woodridge - May Be Present In Neighbouring Areas

🦠 What is Parvo?
Parvo is a highly contagious virus that causes severe gastrointestinal illness in puppies and young dogs. A healthy puppy can become critically ill within days. Without prompt treatment, Parvo can be deadly. Recently, Woodridge has seen an increase in Parvo cases, resulting in heartbreaking losses for many pet families. If your pet is not vaccinated, now is the time to contact us and organise a vaccination.

🐕 How Can My Dog Catch Parvo?
Parvo spreads through direct contact between dogs or indirect contact with contaminated surfaces. The virus can be transmitted by people, animals, or objects exposed to infected dog faeces. Parvo is especially resilient and can survive on surfaces like soil for months or even years.

Common Symptoms of Parvo:
• Severe, bloody diarrhea
• Lethargy and anorexia
• Fever and vomiting

Weakness and dehydration
🚨 If you notice any of these symptoms, contact your vet immediately. These signs may indicate Parvo or another condition needing veterinary attention. Parvo treatment can be costly and isn’t always successful, so prompt action is crucial.

🥰💉 Can I Protect My Dog From Parvo?
Yes, you can! A vaccine for Parvo, is considered essential for all dogs. Puppies should receive a series of shots to be fully protected, followed by annual boosters.

Book an appointment to ensure your dog’s vaccination is up-to-date.
