1. Parvovirus symptoms
Usually, the early symptoms of parvovirus infection include depression, loss of appetite, elevated body temperature, vomiting, and diarrhea.

The main symptoms in the later stage are listlessness, loss of appetite, dehydration, and continued increase in body temperature. Therefore, when an animal exhibits the above symptoms, the owner needs to take the animal to the hospital for parvovirus test paper examination in time. After the diagnosis is confirmed, timely infusion treatment is required.
2. Prevention of parvovirus
Parvovirus is mainly transmitted through contact, and young animals are mainly susceptible. Therefore, the best way to prevent parvovirus is to vaccinate regularly to enhance the antibodies in animals. Under normal circumstances, it is not recommended to take the animal out before it has been vaccinated. If it is necessary to go out, it is recommended not to come into contact with other animals. When returning home, the animal's foot pads should be cleaned and disinfected. It is recommended that the owner receive the first dose of the combined vaccine when the animal is about 45 days old, and then another dose every 21 days, for a total of three doses of the combined vaccine. Seven days after vaccination, the antibody titer in the animal can be tested to see if it is normal. Once the titer is normal, a shot of rabies vaccine can be given. After that, you can get one dose of combined vaccine and one shot of rabies vaccine every year.
