Description
The SelfLab CPV Ag test allows pet owners to easily and confidently check for parvovirus, a dangerous disease affecting young and unvaccinated animals.
Parvovirus
Parvovirus is a disease to which young and unvaccinated animals are most susceptible. Infection occurs through direct contact, through food (by consuming water or food contaminated with feces or vomit), or indirectly through infectious material (bowls, beds). The infection is associated with the digestive tract and heart muscle. Parvovirus is a disease accompanied by symptoms such as vomiting, persistent, bloody diarrhea, loss of appetite, severe weakness, fever, and weight loss.
Thanks to the SelfLab CPV Ag test, you can easily and confidently check whether your pet has accidentally contracted such a dangerous disease as parvovirus. Additionally, it is extremely important to be constantly aware of the risks associated with this particular disease, especially if your dog spends a lot of time outdoors where he is exposed to various hazards. Therefore, regular veterinary examinations, as well as the use of appropriate antiparasitic agents, become the key to maintaining the health and longevity of our four-legged friends. Additionally, in places where dogs stay in very close contact, such as shelters or animal hotels, it is necessary to introduce additional preventive measures. These measures include regular disinfection, isolation of sick animals, and staff education. Thanks to this, there is a chance that the risk of spreading various diseases can be significantly reduced. Cooperation with a veterinarian and the use of modern diagnostic tools, such as the SelfLab CPV Ag test, are steps that lead to ensuring a safe and healthy life for our dogs. If a disease is detected, immediate treatment is the key to the quick recovery of our four-legged friend.
