Canine Parvo Enteritis

Parvo is a diagnosis that strikes fear into the hearts of puppy owners. And might I add, into the hearts of veterinarians and veterinary staff. It is an awful disease that can be prevented by timely vaccinations, good intestinal parasite control, and good puppy husbandry.

So why do we continue to see confirmed cases of Canine Parvo Enteritis? Maybe our lives are just too busy to follow the vaccination & worming schedule set up by the veterinarian. Maybe finances are a problem. I feel that procrastination is the reason we continue to see Parvo. No one wants their beloved puppy to get that sick so it is not intentional.

If you have a new puppy and are postponing that visit to the veterinarian. Do not gamble with your puppy's life. Pick up the phone, make an appointment, and get your puppy vaccinated today.
Our current Parvo patient is going home tomorrow. He is the third puppy we have treated for Parvo from this family. They procastinated three times.
