Parvo Virus
Parvo viral infectious enteritis is a disease in puppies that causes severe blood tinged diarrhea, vomiting and depression in undeveloped immune systems. This is another contagious problem which can be avoided in most circumstances given proper vaccine protocols. The virus is able to survive in the soil or other areas of the environment for months which increases exposure risks once introduced. Supportive care administered very aggressively provides the highest chance of survival, but secondary problems can occur in affected puppies which may lead to prolonged treatment and hospitalization. This virus is susceptible to a 1:10 dilute bleach solution (as well as other specialized cleaning products) given the appropriate direct contact time, but is very difficult to eliminate from an environment once introduced.
