Why the sudden increase in Parvo discussions?
I am stunned at all I have read and my heart goes out to everyone who has had to deal with this horrible illness. I started to look up some info. on Parvo since I don't know very much about it and I found this: http://www.zwire.com/site/news.cfm?news ... 1822&rfi=6 This story was dated March 17, 2007. Is there a epidemic out there? My heart goes out to all the puppy's. I was not sure where to post this so if someone wants to move it ,Please do. Thanks, Antoinette |

| My vet has also seen an increase in Parvo in their office. Twice while I was in there doing regular visits/vaccinations there were signs posted in a few exam rooms "cats only" and the whole place smelled like bleach. I also wonder why there has been an outbreak. Scary stuff. |
| Would you beleave my husband just got tesred and has the human form of parvo D19. theres not one joint in his body that does not hurt. AND I can catch it too. You can not get it from dogs or cats and we can't give it to them...He is on lots of meds. |
| Wow, never heard of such a thing. How long until he feels better and what precautions do you have to take? |
| How did he get it? |
| I think this is going to be a bad year for a lot of things, viruses, bugs etc...
Extra precautions are a good idea. (a little purell on the feet after a walk? lysol the bottom of your shoes if you go to a dog park, the vet, doggie daycare or anywhere else there are a lot of dogs from different homes tracking things around etc) Personally, I just wouldn't go to a dog park or other similar idea at all. |

I am so sorry to here that. I hope he feels better soon and you don't get it. 
This is some scary stuff .I like the idea of Purell on the doggy feet ! I have always made everyone in my family take their shoes off before coming in the house, I am glad I do that now ! ( I just cant stomach to think what is walked in and is on the bottom of shoes...YUCK). Well, I guess I am going to do a lot of cleaning with bleach (just as a precaution) and no outings for Harley for a while! He will miss Petsmart,  he loves to show himself off there .......
