Parvo Treatment - Test Your Knowledge
Spring is already upon us, which means that the Parvo season has begun, and there is a much more aggressive Parvo Strain that is killing dogs at a scary rate. The 2c Strain can kill both adult dogs and puppies within 6-12 hours after symptoms first appear, even though they may be fully-vaccinated and up-to-date with all their shots.
We put together this little quiz to see if you are up on the latest Parvo facts. These are True/False questions:
- Parvo is a puppy disease and my adult dogs are safe.
- All of my dogs are up-to-date on their shots, therefore they are protected.
- I’m worried that my cat can get infected from my Parvo puppy, should I be?
- Foul-smelling dog diarrhea mainly comes from eating junk food.
- Canine Parvovirus is not contagious to humans.
- My vet quoted $750+ for Parvo treatments for my dog, I heard this is low?
- Parvo cannot survive snow and desert-heat temperatures.
- Parvo can only be spread via infected dog feces.
- Parvo can incubate from 3-15 days before symptoms appear.
- Parvo tests at the vet are always accurate.
People seem to have many misconceptions about the Parvovirus. One thing is for sure, it will attack your pet and can take his life if you do not get on top of the situation swiftly. Many times, people are caught unawares and simply do not know what to look for. Parvo symptoms can appear from absolutely nowhere - one minute your dog is his usual playful self and the next minute he is moping around and looking very depressed.
The typical symptoms of Parvo can fox you at first. You may think your dog has just eaten something that didn’t agree with him, when in fact he may already be infected and very ill with the scourge of the Earth, Canine Parvo virus.
