I. Incubation period of parvovirus in dogs
The early stage of infection with parvovirus If dogs are treated in time, the mortality rate will not exceed 20%. The incubation period of parvovirus is generally between 3 and 14 days, and the onset time is about 5 to 7 days. During the incubation period, it is generally impossible to detect whether the dog is infected with parvovirus, and the dog cannot show obvious symptoms. It is only after the symptoms of the onset period can be discovered. At this time, it is generally necessary to carefully observe the parents daily to detect abnormal symptoms of dogs, thereby reducing the harm caused by the disease to dogs.
