Vets at the Park Vet Group have seen cases of the serious disease Parvovirus enteritis recently. This particularly unpleasant gastroenteritis infection leads to severe vomiting and diarrhoea often with blood leading to rapid dehydration and shock. Other vets in Leicestershire have also reported cases.
It affects young puppies especially but can affect adults as well when dogs are not vaccinated or overdue boosters. We urge all dog owners to ensure their pets are fully up to date with their boosters and anyone considering getting a new puppy contact the surgery to find out about how we can ensure full protection with the Park Vet Group’s 3 injection vaccination course.

Dogs and Cats, as we all know, can become infested with fleas. These irritating little creatures have a fascinating life cycle, which can mean an infestation on your pet, turns into a huge problem in your home.
There are many different species of flea but the most common are the Dog flea and the Cat flea. Cat fleas are the most common and will infest both cats AND dogs.
