Spring-time means the start of the Parvo season, and there is an infinitely more aggressive Parvovirus Strain that is killing dogs at a scary rate. The 2c Strain (aka F-Strain) can kill both adult dogs and puppies within 6-12 hours after symptoms first appear, even though they may be fully-vaccinated and up-to-date with all their shots.

So, we put together a little quiz for you to see whether you’re up-to-date. These are all True/False questions:

1. Parvo is a puppy disease and my adult dogs are safe.
2. All of my dogs are up-to-date on their shots, therefore they are protected.
3. I’m worried that my cat can get infected from my Parvo puppy, should I be?
4. Foul-smelling dog diarrhea mainly comes from eating junk food.
5. Canine Parvovirus is not contagious to humans.
6. My vet quoted $750+ for Parvo treatments for my dog, I heard this is low?
7. Parvo cannot survive snow and desert-heat temperatures.
8. Parvo can only be spread via infected dog feces.
9. Parvo can incubate from 3-15 days before symptoms appear.
10. Parvo tests at the vet are always accurate.

People seem to have many misconceptions about Parvo. One thing is for certain, it will attack your pet and can take his life if you don’t take immediate action. Many times, people are caught unawares and just do not know what to look for. Parvo symptoms can appear from absolutely nowhere - one minute your dog is playing and the next minute he is lying around, not eating, no energy - basically, not the dog you know and love.

The typical symptoms of Parvo can confuse you at first. You may suppose your dog has just swallowed something that didn’t agree with him, when indeed he may already be infected and very ill with the scourge of the Earth, Parvo virus.
