A more rare strain of this disease may be observed in very young puppies is myocarditis (an inflammation or severe irritation of the heart muscles).]]> 2017-03-27 00:17:10 UTC https://padlet.com/rebekah_cowherd/nmj8j8hnd4jh/wish/162671763 rebekah_cowherd https://padlet.com/rebekah_cowherd/nmj8j8hnd4jh/wish/162671788 There are two areas of concern, intestinal and cardiac. The cardiac form goes unnoticed and attacks suddenly, the intestinal form is a very slow and painful death.]]> 2017-03-27 00:17:23 UTC https://padlet.com/rebekah_cowherd/nmj8j8hnd4jh/wish/162671788 rebekah_cowherd https://padlet.com/rebekah_cowherd/nmj8j8hnd4jh/wish/162671799 See Cornell website listed below and read section titled "What happens during infection"]]> 2017-03-27 00:17:33 UTC https://padlet.com/rebekah_cowherd/nmj8j8hnd4jh/wish/162671799 rebekah_cowherd https://padlet.com/rebekah_cowherd/nmj8j8hnd4jh/wish/162671810 "The virus that causes the disease known as “parvo”, canine parvovirus type 2 (CPV), first emerged among dogs in Europe around 1976. By 1978 the virus had spread unchecked, causing a worldwide epidemic of myocarditis and inflammation in the intestines (gastroenteritis). We now know the virus is not limited to dogs, but is capable of causing infections in wild canines such as coyotes and wolves, and other wild animals, including foxes, raccoons and skunks. CPV is closely related to feline panleukopenia virus (FPV), a virus that has been know since the 1920s to infect cats and mink and other animals. CPV probably arose as the result of 2 or 3 genetic mutations in FPV that allowed it to expand its host range to infect dogs" (Cornell).]]> 2017-03-27 00:17:39 UTC https://padlet.com/rebekah_cowherd/nmj8j8hnd4jh/wish/162671810 rebekah_cowherd https://padlet.com/rebekah_cowherd/nmj8j8hnd4jh/wish/162671823 Intestinal:

It can also be transmitted by the soil outside being tracked inside the home on the bottom of the shoes.]]> 2017-03-27 00:18:03 UTC https://padlet.com/rebekah_cowherd/nmj8j8hnd4jh/wish/162671846 rebekah_cowherd https://padlet.com/rebekah_cowherd/nmj8j8hnd4jh/wish/162671855 Canine parvovirus is a very aggressive disease, and thus is very hard for the dog to get over. Treatment includes a great deal of TLC, with saline IV fluids and lots of rest. Even after the animal has recovered, a weakened immune system will be noticeable.]]> 2017-03-27 00:18:09 UTC https://padlet.com/rebekah_cowherd/nmj8j8hnd4jh/wish/162671855 rebekah_cowherd https://padlet.com/rebekah_cowherd/nmj8j8hnd4jh/wish/162671880 There is a type of new and rare parvovirus that has been observed in humans called Parvovirus B19, but it is relatively harmless. The most common symptoms are those similar to a cold, or a rash in small children. Death does not occur]]> 2017-03-27 00:18:22 UTC https://padlet.com/rebekah_cowherd/nmj8j8hnd4jh/wish/162671880 rebekah_cowherd https://padlet.com/rebekah_cowherd/nmj8j8hnd4jh/wish/162676621
