Could You Cope with an Outbreak of Parvovirus?

Mark Farrar
Here are a few facts about Canine Parvovirus (aka CPV, Parvo virus, or more commonly known as Parvo) that you probably don't know about:

1. Problem is, once your dog is infected, there's about 3-15 days when you will see no symptoms, but the virus is consuming large amounts of bone marrow, then moving on to consume and destroy a huge number of cells in the intestines - a lot of damage occurs at this stage.

2. When your doggie becomes infected and shows any of these symptoms (yellow frothy vomit, diarrhea [with or without blood], lethargy/no energy, wobbly, no appetite, dehydration, very depressed, etc.) then he may only have a few hours to 4 or 5 days left if he is not treated immediately.

3. Dogs can easily become infected by any number of ways, e.g. touching infected bodily fluids (saliva, vomit, urine, etc.), touching waste products (feces), nose-to-nose contact, from your clothes, shoes, car tires, birds, insects, or other critters.

4. Parvo can be in the ground from a few months to twenty (20) years.

5. Parvo is incredibly hardy: it can survive freezing temperatures (32 degrees F or 0 degrees C) and boiling water (212 degrees F or 100 degrees C).

6. If it turns out your dog does have Parvo and you take him to the vet's, you should be prepared to spend anywhere from $500 to over $6,000 USD per dog, and your vet will probably give the dog only a 50:50 chance of survival.

7. Currently, the Parvo Hot Spot areas are mainly south of I-70 (Utah, going all across the southern US states as far as Maryland).

8. Some of the hardest hit states include Texas, California, Arizona, Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, Alabama and Tennessee, but many other states and other countries outside of the US are starting to experience Parvo outbreaks too.

Is there a Home Parvo Treatment or a natural Parvo Remedy you can use?

1. The first thing you must do is to become more educated about this horrific virus, and you can do this by requesting our downloadable, free, comprehensive ebook, Parvo Treatment 101, from ParvoBook.com - it contains a large section on Parvo Prevention and various methods to treat Parvo.

2. If your dog has started showing any of the symptoms listed above, then you have to move fast, so read our free book later and immediately go read our Home Parvo Treatment FAQs, find the Parvo Emergency Tea Recipe - it will not treat Parvo, and neither will it prevent Parvo, but it is a stop-gap measure to keep your dog hydrated until you can get a Parvaid Silver or Gold Value Pack.

3. We will also send more much-needed emergency measures to you via email - since your Parvaid Pack will be FedEx Overnighted, your dog may need additional measures to help him out until your products arrive.

4. We will help you day or night (24 x 7 customer support as you'll have very little time to save your dog's life).
