FIGHT THE THREAT OF PARVOVIRUS 
WITH A BALANCED NUTRITIONAL SUPPLEMENT FOR DOGS

How Dogs Get Parvovirus

Parvovirus is a killer of young dogs. A highly contagious viral disease that attacks the intestinal track, white blood cells and in some cases, the heart muscle. Parvovirus may be closely related to the cat virus panleukopenia.The virus is spread by the ingestion of fecal materiel from infected animals. A dog may become infected by eating the stool of infected animals, or simply by walking in the infected feces and later licking his paws, thereby, becoming infected. There are several different strains of parvovirus that cause varying symptoms. Generally, the signs of parvovirus are lethargy,diarrhea, vomiting, and refusal of food. The diarrhea is usually watery and may have streaks of blood. The dog may also have an elevated temperature. Parvovirus is serious and rapid treatment should be taken to replace the fluids lost from the vomiting and diarrhea. If your dog shows these symptoms, she should be taken to a veterinarian.

Dogs Nutritional Instincts and Parvovirus

A dog’s habit of eating feces is caused by an attempt by the dog to satisfy a nutritional void. So feeding your dog a nutritionally balanced diet is an important factor in preventing the animal from becoming infected with potentially dangerous toxins like those causing Parvovirus. A dog needs a strong immune system to fight off disease and poisons, and his immune system needs extra nutritional support, including a good multi-vitamin-mineral supplement  for dogs like IN®.

which is important in all phases of the immune function because it fortifies and keeps the T-cells,the natural killer cells and the antibodies functioning.
