It has come to light that there have been a couple of cases of Parvo virus around the Ashburton area. Parvo virus is highly contagious and can be caught by dogs of all ages, with young unvaccinated or not fully vaccinated puppies most at risk.

Signs to watch out for that might indicate your dog has been exposed can include : diarrhoea , vomiting , lethargy , fever and loss of appetite.

Ensure that your dog is up to date on vaccinations and avoid areas that are heavily dog populated until your dog is fully covered.

If you have concerns that your dog may have been effected, contact your vet :)
