Chucky Mama Posted August 28, 2010 Share Posted August 28, 2010 We currently have an outbreak - now being called an 'Epidemic,' of Parvo virus in Swindon. It may be an isolated outbreak but please make sure that your dog's are covered. Many have been put to sleep, some have died and several are critical. It is a really unpleasant virus and easily prevented. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lewis Posted August 29, 2010 Share Posted August 29, 2010 Not heard anything about it here, but then haven't really spoken to the vets for about a month! Saw a puppy with it at work exp, and the breeder refused to accept it was parvo so the others that had been sold were at risk - not nice. Hope its under control soon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craftyhunnypie Posted August 29, 2010 Share Posted August 29, 2010 There was a warning poster about it in our vet surgery - Winterley, Cheshire. It's been found around here too. Very sad & like you say easily prevented. Get your dogs boosters up to date. Emma.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
