An outbreak of canine parvovirus, a highly infectious disease that can be deadly for dogs, is spreading on Grand Cayman. This disease can be fatal to dogs but is especially dangerous for puppies aged six weeks to six months. Although there is no cure for the virus, vaccinating a dog or puppy against the parvo virus will protect them. Island Veterinary Service is appealing to all unvaccinated dog owners, regardless of age, to please get your dog vaccinated at your local vet.
