dog parvo

1. The pathogen of this disease is canine parvovirus, which belongs to the family Parvoviridae, belongs to the genus Parvovirus, and is of RNA type.

2. The virus has strong resistance to various physical and chemical factors. It can survive for one hour at a pH value of 3-9 and 56°C. It can be killed by 0.5% formaldehyde solution, B-propiolactone, chloride, and ultraviolet rays. to put out the fire.

3. Insensitive to ethanol and chloroform. The antigen of this virus is similar to that of feline panleukopenia virus, and there is a serological cross-reaction between the two.

4. Divided into enteritis type and myocarditis type. Enteritis type: The main feature is hemorrhagic necrosis of the small intestine, manifested as depression, loss of appetite, and vomiting. In the late stage of the disease, the feces of dogs are mostly tomato-like, and the smell is unpleasant.

Causes of tiny dogs

1. Insufficient immunity: When the dog has not received immunization or the vaccination is not complete, it has come into contact with the infected dog or their excrement, vomit, saliva, or the owner may carry it with him when he comes back. At this time, the dog's immunity is insufficient to resist the attack of parvovirus.

2. Stress-induced microbiosis: Usually puppies are very poor in adapting to the environment. Changes in the environment or sudden stimulation will cause them to have a stress response, which will make them more likely to be infected with viruses.

3. Parvo caused by parasites: Small dogs that have not been dewormed are easily infected by parasites and have vomiting and diarrhea, which leads to a decrease in the dog's resistance and is easy to be infected with parvovirus.

4. Caused by improper diet: such as feeding the dog milk, chicken bones, oily food, etc., which will cause the dog to have diarrhea and be infected with parvovirus.

petite treatment for dogs

1. Use antiviral drugs, such as parvovirus inhibitory protein, interferon, etc.

2. During parvovirus infection, the dog's white blood cells will drop, so antibiotics are needed for treatment.

3. In case of repeated vomiting and bleeding, infusion therapy is required. The general course of disease is five to seven days.
