| Popis: | Parvovirus enteritis in dogs presented with clinical diarrhoea was studied. Parvovirus was identified in seven out of 11 dogs with diarrhoea by means of haemagglutination and haemagglutination-inhibition tests. Haemagglutination activity was found to persist in faeces for up to 22 days after onset of diarrhoea. Antibody to canine parvovirus was detected in 24 out of 40 dogs selected randomly from dogs presented for clinical examination. Antibody prevalence was highest in dogs 1 year old or younger. |
