new parvo strand!!!!!!!!!!!!! breaders please read

Post by raccoon crk kennel »

theres a new type of parvo called cronous it kills just like parvo, even in older pups and even dogs. the vets recomend giving 8 and one shots now as second and third shots as well as yearly booster shots, i know several people who learned this the hard way lately! they cost about a doller more but its great insurence! they said its exstreamly bad this year so im useing every precation i can, its spread threw feaces,contaminated bedding, soil and flies and ticks.. just wanted to pass this along.

Here is some info on it. Please don't give your beagle pups 7 or 8 way shots. Its a gamble because of lepto in the shots, it will at times...AT TIMES kill small breed pups. 6 way shots and a clean kennel is much safer.
