Rudy the one year old golden retriever was in the Christmas spirit yesterday 🎅🏽! He left with two less "ornaments" for his Christmas tree, but I don't think it will lower his spirits 😄🎄⚾⚾

Canine parvovirus, a highly contagious and potentially life-threatening disease, has been a significant concern for dog owners and veterinary professionals alike since its emergence in the 1970s. Despite the availability of effective vaccines, which have led to a significant decline in the incidence of the disease in certain areas, there is currently a worrying surge in parvovirus cases being diagnosed across Nova Scotia, highlighting the need for increased awareness and vigilance among dog owners and breeders.

The symptoms of parvovirus, which can range from mild to severe, typically include vomiting, diarrhea, lethargy, anorexia, and dehydration. Puppies and young dogs, with their still-developing immune systems, are particularly vulnerable to the virus, making it essential for them to receive timely and adequate vaccination. The Canadian Veterinary Medical Association strongly recommends that all puppies receive their DA2PPv (distemper virus, adenovirus, parainfluenza, parvovirus) core vaccine at 8, 12, and 16 weeks of age, followed by a booster at 1 year and every 3 years thereafter. This vaccine has been proven to be highly effective in protecting against the virus, and it is the most critical step you can take to safeguard your furry friend's health.

For adult dogs, vaccine titers are a viable alternative to traditional vaccinations, allowing you to confirm whether your dog has adequate protection against the virus. However, it is crucial to note that parvovirus is extremely resilient and can survive in the environment for extended periods, making it essential to maintain rigorous hygiene and disinfection protocols to prevent the spread of the disease.

At the Avon Animal Hospital, we take the threat of parvovirus very seriously and have implemented stringent measures to prevent the spread of the disease, including the use of high-grade disinfectants proven to destroy the virus with appropriate contact time in areas that may have come into contact with the virus. We understand that every dog is precious, and we are committed to providing the highest level of care and protection for your beloved pet.

If you have questions about how to best protect your furry friend from parvovirus or would like to learn more about our vaccination and disinfection protocols, please don't hesitate to reach out to us. Our dedicated team is always here to help. 📲

Remember, knowledge is power, and staying informed is the key to keeping your dog safe from this devastating disease. Stay vigilant, and let's work together to keep our furry friends healthy and happy! 🐾💕

🎉 Celebrating RVT Month — Even as It Comes to a Close! 🎉

As RVT Month wraps up, we want to take a moment to recognize our five amazing Registered Veterinary Technicians — Amanda, Brianna, Lauren, Kayla, and Julia! 💙

From assisting in surgery and performing treatments to monitoring anesthesia, running lab work, and comforting nervous pets (and their people), they do it all with professionalism, and kindness.

Our RVTs are truly the heartbeat of our hospital — always ready to jump in wherever they’re needed, always advocating for their patients, and always showing up with positivity and teamwork. Their knowledge, attention to detail, and genuine love for animals make an incredible difference every single day.

Even though the month is almost over, our appreciation for everything they do continues all year long. 🐶🐱🐴💚
