Canine parvovirus (CPV) is known for its resilience and can survive in the environment for an extended period. Studies show that the virus can survive outside a host for several months, and in some cases, it can last up to a year or more in certain conditions. The virus is particularly hardy in cold and dry environments, making it essential for dog owners and caretakers to maintain strict hygiene protocols. To minimize the risk of infection, regularly disinfect areas where dogs frequent, especially if there are known cases of parvovirus in the area. Use a bleach solution (1 part bleach to 30 parts water) for effective disinfection, but always ensure the area is safe for dogs after cleaning. Keeping your dog vaccinated is also crucial in preventing infection from this hardy virus.
