Dog owners are being urged to get their pets vaccinated after a puppy nearly died from a highly infectious virus. Doberman pup Blue spent seven days receiving treatment in isolation.
As well as being sick, Blue lost his appetite and started passing blood. After being rushed to the vets, his owners were warned he may not survive as he battled the potentially deadly parvovirus.
Fortunately, he managed to pull through. And as reported by the Manchester Evening News, relieved owner, Danielle Hargreaves, and Armac Vets in Bury who treated him, are now urging people to protect their pets from the virus by getting their vaccinations and booster jabs.
