Abstract
Canine parvoviral enteritis is one of the most common causes of morbidity and mortality in young dogs worldwide. The virus is endemic in the environment and can be infective to unvaccinated or poorly vaccinated dogs. Standard in-patient therapies include use of antiemetics, intravenous fluids, antibiotics and provision of enteral nutrition. The use of antiviral drugs, immunomodulators and monoclonal antibody therapy are newer possibilities that may potentially improve outcome. Outpatient therapy also remains a viable possibility for treatment if financial constraints exist.
