I am really curious.. How did your brother's dog contract the parvo? Had he not kept up the dogs shots OR (a scarrier scenario) the dog got it even though it was properly vaccinated.
I do not let my dogs touch anything at stores like PetSmart. There are so many viruses and so on that can be picked up from the floor. I take a blankie and put it down in the seat part of the cart. I have a sign that says "MOM SAYS ASK BEFORE YOU PET US! and I don't let people touch them. If someone is insistent, I just smile and say "If you have dogs at home you might want to stay away from strange dogs like mine who might have a contagious disease!" You would think I zapped them with a stun gun they pull their hand back so quickly..LOL
I throw the blankie in the trunk and put them on a clean one in the car... |
