🚨 Local Alert: Increase in Parvovirus Cases 🚨

We’ve been made aware of an increase in parvovirus cases in the local area, and we want to make sure all pet owners are informed and prepared.

What is Parvovirus?
Parvo is a highly contagious and potentially fatal virus that affects dogs, particularly puppies and unvaccinated dogs. It attacks the gut and immune system, leading to severe illness.

Symptoms to Watch For:
⚠️ Vomiting
⚠️ Diarrhoea (often bloody)
⚠️ Lethargy and weakness
⚠️ Loss of appetite
⚠️ Fever or low body temperature

If your dog shows any of these symptoms, contact your vet immediately. Early treatment can make a big difference.

How to Protect Your Dog:
✔️ Vaccination is key – ensure your dog is up to date with their jabs. Puppies need a full course, and boosters are vital.
✔️ If your dog is immunocompromised or unvaccinated - avoid high-risk areas – places like parks and public footpaths where unvaccinated dogs may have been.
✔️ Practice good hygiene – clean up after your dog and avoid contact with unknown dogs.
✔️ Be cautious with puppies – young dogs are most at risk, avoid any potential exposure until they’re fully vaccinated - with a minimum 7 day period after their second vaccination, after 10 weeks of age.
✔️ Additional parvovirus vaccination - to give puppies the maximum protection, we advise and include a third parvo vaccine at a minimum 16 weeks of age with all primary vaccine courses.

Please spread the word to keep our furry friends safe! If you have any concerns, reach out to your vet for advice. Stay vigilant and take care! 🐶💙

🎉 New Year, New Goals – For You and Your Pets! 🐾

As we step into 2025, it’s the perfect time to set some New Year’s resolutions for you and your beloved pets! Here are a few ideas to help ensure a happy and healthy year for the whole family:

🐕 Keep Active: Whether it’s longer walks, more playtime, or exploring new parks, regular exercise is great for both you and your pet!

🐾 Prioritise Health Checks: Annual vet visits are vital for spotting issues early and keeping your pet in top condition. If it’s been a while, why not book a check-up this month?

🍖 Review Their Diet: A balanced diet is key to good health. Chat with us if you’re unsure about what’s best for your pet’s needs.

🦷 Don’t Forget Dental Care: Teeth and gum health often get overlooked. Consider introducing dental supplements or scheduling a dental check-up.

🐾 Training & Enrichment: Whether it’s mastering a new trick or trying out puzzle toys, mental stimulation is just as important as physical exercise.

🐕‍🦺 Plan Preventative Care: Keep up with flea, tick, and worm treatments, as well as vaccinations, to prevent illnesses before they start.

💖 Spend Quality Time Together: Pets thrive on love and attention. Make time for cuddles, play, and simply being together.

Let us know what resolutions you’ve set for your pet this year in the comments below! 🐶🐱🐰

From all of us at Keighley Vets for Pets, here’s to a pawsome 2025! 🐾🎆
