Pets at Risk for Parvovirus
Dogs develop parvovirus infections. Some breeds (Rottweilers, Doberman Pinschers, English Springer Spaniels) appear more susceptible than others to parvo, but any stressed dog is susceptible. Dogs stressed by kenneling, being in an animal shelter, or being weaned and placed in a pet store are at risk.
Poor sanitation and crowding increase the likelihood your dog can become infected with parvo. Puppies are more susceptible than adult dogs.
