Abstract: This paper relates the clinical and epidemiological aspects of canine parvovirus infection (CPV) in the State of Rio de Janeiro from April 1995 to March 2004. A total of 341 fecal samples were collected from up to 6-months-old puppies with gastroenteritis. The diagnosis of CPV infection was confirmed by hemagglutination/ hemagglutination inhibition tests, enzyme immunoassay, virus isolation in cell culture or polymerase chain reaction. One hundred and fifty-seven samples (46%) were positive for CPV. No correla… Show more

“…All the pups observed in the present study were weaned. Results of the present study and that of the previous researches Rogers, Houston, Khan and Castro [10,11,15,16] on effect of age of animal for CPV infection revealed that more than 50 per cent of the affected animals were below 5 months of age.…”

“…The onset of clinical signs that are similar to those of canine parvovirus (anorexia, lethargy, vomiting, and hemorrhagic fluid diarrhea) is a frequent finding in veterinary practice (4,11,18). The field pathogenicity of the new strain, CPV-2c, has been investigated, and most of the CPV-2c cases reported had clinical signs associated with severe hemorrhagic enteritis, in some cases resulting in a fatal outcome (8,14).…”

“…In the state of Rio de Janeiro, Southeastern Brazil, previous reports have shown that CPV is responsible for approximately 46% of the enteritis cases in puppies (4,6,7).…”

“…CPV-2 is gradually being replaced in the canine population by new antigenic variants or biotypes, designated CPV-2a and CPV-2b (Decaro & Buonavoglia 2012) and by a third biotype, CPV-2c, which has been increasing since its identification in 2001 (Hoelzer & Parrish 2010, Decaro & Buonavoglia 2012. Since 1980, (Hagiwara et al 1980, Angelo et al 1988, there has been a clear spread of hemorrhagic enteritis caused by canine parvovirus (Pereira et al 2000, Castro et al 2007, Streck et al 2009) in Brazil, including in our region. Nevertheless, in recent years, infrequent cases of the disease have been observed, suggesting that eventually the routine vaccination of puppies would induce immunity and, consequently, the disappearance of clinical cases.…”
