Anyone down Hobart way, especially the Huon, please be careful as the deadly parvo virus is doing the rounds. Any puppies that haven’t had their thirds puppy vaccination or dogs that haven’t had their yearly boosters, please keep them home and keep them safe until vaccinated. Also if you have an older dog and a puppy that isn’t fully vaccinated, keep the older dog at home too. I’m not entered to show in Hobart this weekend, if I was, I definitely wouldn’t be going as other dogs use Brighton grounds.
This virus is highly contagious and deadly.
EDIT: Montrose Vet has also put up alert!
🚨Important Information🚨
Hobart is experiencing a parvovirus outbreak. Parvovirus is highly contagious and can be lethal to dogs. To minimise risk, avoid walking unvaccinated pets in popular dog areas until they're vaccinated. Please contact if you are unsure of your dogs vaccine status.
