❗️PARVOVIRUS❗️
Parvovirus seems to be on the increase amongst some dogs again in the Teesside area. Be mindful where you walk your doggies and also ensure to keep up to date with your dog’s annual vaccines and any additional vaccines that can help prevent your dog getting parvovirus.
If your dog does have parvovirus, ensure to keep them indoors to prevent the spread or other dogs.
Parvovirus signs to look out for:
💩 Severe diarrhoea
🩸 Possibly blood in stool
🤮 Vomiting
Lethargy
👃 Very foul odour to body / stool
🤒 Fever / high body temperature - hot to touch
💧 Loss of appetite and not drinking / dehydration.
⚖️ Rapid weight loss and experiencing abdominal pain
If your pet is experiencing any of these signs, this is classed as an emergency and you must contact the vet right away for an appointment as this disease can be life threatening.
The sooner treatment starts, better chance of recovery. This can be a fatal disease.
I think that time has come again to have disinfectant outside of my salon to dip your feet before entering. Please if your dog is unwell even in the slightest please do not being him/her for her appointment, I took have dogs and puppies at home aswell so would like to protect them also
Thankyou
