Canine parvovirus is a highly contagious and life-threatening viral disease, especially dangerous for puppies and unvaccinated dogs. It mainly attacks the intestines and immune system, leading to severe dehydration and weakness.

Common Symptoms:

• Severe vomiting
• Bloody diarrhea
• Loss of appetite
• Fever or low body temperature
• Extreme weakness and dehydration

Treatment: There is no direct cure, but early and aggressive treatment can save lives. Dogs usually need:

• IV fluids to prevent dehydration
• Antibiotics to control secondary infections
• Anti-vomiting medicines and supportive care

Survival Chances:

• With early treatment: around 70–90% survival rate
• Without treatment: survival drops drastically

Prevention:

• Timely vaccination is the best protection
• Avoid contact with infected dogs or contaminated areas

👉 In short, parvovirus spreads fast but quick action and proper care can make the difference between life and death.
