Canine Parvovirus (CPV) & Canine Coronavirus (CCV)
Apr 17, 2025
Overview
Canine Parvovirus (CPV) and Canine Coronavirus (CCV) are highly contagious enteric pathogens affecting dogs, particularly puppies and unvaccinated animals. CPV causes severe, often fatal gastroenteritis, while CCV typically leads to milder symptoms but can exacerbate disease in co-infections. Rapid and accurate diagnostics are critical for effective treatment and outbreak control.
