What is this COVID-19 and does it affect pets? The first thing to know is that the term COVID-19 refers to Coronavirus illness, also known as human novel coronavirus illness. The virus causing the illness is called SARS-CoV-2 or "Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2" So now that we have that sorted, do I need to do anything regarding my pets?
Should my pet have one? Find out if your pet should have a in-house blood test before undergoing an anaesthetic. One of the greatest concerns of pet owners is anaesthetic and surgical safety.
Geraldton is suffering from a Parvovirus outbreak. Parvovirus or Pavo for short is a highly infectious virus that attacks the gastrointestinal tract and cardiovascular systems of dogs.
This is one of the most dangerous infections dogs can be exposed to. There is no cure. Even with the best treatment some dogs/puppies will not survive this terrible disease.
Another two classes of now very clever puppies have graduated over the last two weeks. They've all done so well!!! We can't wait to watch them grow. If you are interested in Puppy Pre School, our classes usually run on Thursday nights at either 6.30pm and again at 7.30pm. Call us to enrole your new puppy today.
