Everyone please make sure
Everyone please make sure that your animals are protected from PARVO before taking them out.
Parvo is a very BAD disease that is going around here in Knox County. It is very easy to transmit from one dog to another..Can be carried on your shoes home to your pets also. Parvo can last in the environment up to nine months. Then activate again. Other animals can bring it to your yard as well. Even birds on their feet. Car tires also can spread it. It killed my sisters dog in three days. That was last week. It is very nasty and painful to the dogs. Vaccines can be bought for under five dollars at the co-op.
Please tell everyone that has a dog that may not be vaccinated.
