I am thrilled something I shared about parvo, made an impact on even one other person! At the vet, I spray the exam table with Virkon and I even bring a sheet when we go to the vet, to cover the exam table. I cover the scale, and I bring my own thermometer. I wait in the car until we are ready to be seen, and then we go straight into the exam room....taking a healthy dog to the vet, where you have sick animals hanging out, walking around, owners cirrculating around petting all the other animals....NO THANKS!!! These Pet stores where dogs are allowed to run around, as a time bomb waiting to happen.....you have NO idea what diseased dogs are walking around in there! If my fear of parvo, and some of the steps I take or activities I avoid because of my experience with parvo, helps keep even one other pup from getting this disease, I feel like that is one battle we have won against the disease! I am praying the OP has wiped ecery single place down and that the new baby does not catch the disease from something she missed in her cleaning!
