🚨 Parvovirus Alert in Our Community 🚨
Recently, several puppies in our community have tested positive for Parvovirus. Cases continue to emerge across the region, putting unvaccinated and young dogs at high risk.
Parvovirus is a highly contagious and deadly virus that spreads through contact with infected dogs, contaminated surfaces, and even human shoes or clothing. It attacks the gastrointestinal system, causing severe vomiting, diarrhea, dehydration, and often requires intensive veterinary care.
💉 How to Protect Your Dog:
✔️ Ensure your dog is fully vaccinated—puppies need a series of vaccines, and adult dogs require regular boosters.
✔️ Avoid dog parks, daycare, or high-traffic areas if your dog is unvaccinated or overdue for vaccines.
✔️ Practice strict hygiene—wash hands and change clothes if exposed to unknown dogs or environments.
✔️ Contact your vet immediately if your dog shows symptoms like vomiting, diarrhea, lethargy, or loss of appetite.
Parvo can become life threatening if left untreated and vaccination is the best defense. Please share this message to help protect our community’s pets. Stay safe! 🐶❤️
