🚨 Important Alert for Dog Owners: Canine Parvo Virus 🚨

Canine Parvovirus (CPV) is a highly contagious viral infection that affects dogs, especially puppies and unvaccinated dogs.
It attacks the gastrointestinal tract, causing severe vomiting, diarrhea (often bloody), lethargy, and dehydration. In severe cases, it can be fatal.

Signs to watch for:
• Loss of appetite
• Vomiting and diarrhea
• Lethargy and weakness
• Dehydration

Prevention is key:
• Ensure your dog is up-to-date on vaccinations, especially puppies who are most at risk.
• Avoid contact with other dogs who might be infected.
• Clean up after your dog regularly, as the virus can live in the environment for months.
If you suspect your dog has parvo, seek immediate veterinary care. Early intervention can save lives! 🐾

🐾📚 Back to School: Tips for Your Pet’s Smooth Transition! 🐾✏️

As the kids head back to school, it’s not just humans who need to adjust! 🐶🐱 Your furry friends might need a little help adapting to the new routine.

Here are some tips to make sure your pet feels comfortable and happy during the back-to-school transition:

1️⃣ Establish a New Routine: With the school schedule back in full swing, your pet might notice some changes. Make sure to stick to consistent feeding, playtime, and potty breaks to keep them settled.

2️⃣ More Mental Stimulation: While the kids are away, give your pet some fun brain games or puzzle toys to keep them engaged. This can help prevent boredom and anxiety during the day.

3️⃣ Check Your Pet’s Health: A new season means it’s a great time for a vet check-up. Ensure your pet is up-to-date on vaccinations, flea/tick prevention, and general health checks.

4️⃣ Comfort and Familiarity: If your pet is used to being around people all day, consider creating a cozy spot with their favorite blanket or toy. Familiar scents can help ease separation anxiety.

5️⃣ Exercise is Key: Keep up with daily walks, runs, or playtime to burn off extra energy. A tired pet is a happy pet!

📅 Set your pet up for success this school year with a little extra love and attention.

They’ll be ready for the new routine in no time! 🐾
