Prevention is the only way to ensure that your dog remains healthy because the disease is extremely virulent and contagious.
Survival rate depends on how quickly CPV is diagnosed, the age of the animal and how aggressive the treatment is. However, even with hospitalization, there is no guarantee that the dog will be cured and survive.
Signs of parvo are:
- lethargy
- vomiting
- fever
- diarrhea (usually bloody)
- loss of appetite
