Canine Parvovirus Threatens Puppies This Summer: Know Symptoms & Prevention

• Canine Parvovirus (Parvo) rapidly spreads among puppies in summer, attacking intestines and weakening the body.
• Infection spreads through contact with infected feces or contaminated areas; warm weather increases virus activity.
• Symptoms include lethargy, loss of appetite, severe vomiting, thin diarrhea (sometimes bloody), and rapid dehydration.
• Dogs aged 45 days to 1.5 years are at higher risk; timely treatment is crucial within the 10-14 day infection cycle.
• Prevention involves timely deworming, vaccination (DHPPI, 7-in-1, 9-in-1), and annual booster shots.
