Send us Fan MailSummaryElanco Animal Health launched a national campaign to spread awareness about the start of the deadly season for canine parvovirus, one of the most contagious and deadly dog viruses. Dr. Jen Miller explains that parvovirus primarily affects young puppies that are either not vaccinated or not completely through their vaccine series. The virus is spread through contaminated feces and can live in the environment for a long time. Symptoms include vomiting, diarrhea, and blood in the stool, and if left untreated, the death rate can be as high as 91%. Elanco's Parvo is Poop campaign aims to increase awareness about parvovirus and provide resources for pet owners to find vets and treatment options.Keywordscanine parvovirus, dog virus, deadly virus, contagious, puppies, vaccination, symptoms, treatment, awareness campaignTakeawaysCanine parvovirus primarily affects young puppies that are not vaccinated or not completely through their vaccine series.The virus is spread through contaminated feces and can live in the environment for a long time.Symptoms of parvovirus include vomiting, diarrhea, and blood in the stool.Early intervention and treatment are crucial for a better outcome.Elanco's Parvo is Poop campaign aims to increase awareness about parvovirus and provide resources for pet owners.Sound Bites"Canine parvovirus, one of the most contagious and deadly dog viruses""Parvovirus primarily affects young puppies that are either not vaccinated or not completely through their vaccine series""Parvovirus is spread from contaminated feces or poop"Chapters00:00Introduction and the Start of the Parvovirus Season08:24The Parvo is Poop Campaign15:53Elanco's Mission to Save Puppies from Parvovirus
