Numerous Lancashire users on Facebook this week have been discussing the potential resurgence of parvovirus, claiming they have received warnings from their vets. This includes Fleetwood based vetinery practice Mount Vets who has reportedly sent an email and text to its clients warning of a parvo outbreak across the county.
” The UK Kennel Club further explains that a high temperature, lethargy and inappetence tend to be the first signs, whilst vomitting and diarrhoea comes after. How can you prevent the spread of parvovirus? The UK Kennel Club say “Vaccination is the most effective way to protect your dog from parvovirus”, explaining that a dog should first have had a vaccine when they were a puppy, but then require regular additional boosters as part of their annual vaccinations.
