🚨 Canine Parvovirus (Parvo): What Every Dog Owner Should Know 🚨
Parvovirus is a highly contagious and deadly virus that affects dogs, especially puppies. It attacks the intestinal lining, causing severe symptoms such as:
🔹 Bloody diarrhea
🔹 Vomiting
🔹 Fever & lethargy
🔹 Loss of appetite
🔹 Dehydration & shock
Without urgent veterinary treatment, parvo can be fatal within 48–72 hours.
⚠️ How it spreads:
Parvo spreads through contaminated f***s, environments, or contact with infected dogs. The virus can survive on surfaces (like shoes, floors, cages) for months.
🛡️ Good news: Parvo is preventable!
✅ Start vaccination at 6–8 weeks of age
