Corona Virus

Corona virus is transmitted from dog to dog by ingesting feces from infected dogs. The incubation period is only 2 or 3 days. Diarrhea quickly follows, then vomiting and associated severe dehydration. Adult dogs generally recover quickly, however that's not the case with puppies. They quickly become dehydrated and lose weight very fast.

Although corona virus is a diagnosed virus, I have found that prompt treatment with injectable Amoxil under the skin will prevent puppies from getting overly sick from it. This is not logical, as viruses are not treatable with antibiotics. My local Vet had no idea what the problem was at the time, but by experimenting with different treatments, we found that injecting ½ ml of Amoxil suspension under the skin stopped the coronavirus from killing them... that and isolating puppies immediately they go off their food.

Only 1 or 2 inections one day apart will be enough to prevent the corona virus from taking a stronghold in the puppies system.

NOTE: I am not a Vet, but this treatment worked for me when the Vets had no idea how to treat the disease at the time. Corona Virus is a lot more commonly found now, and most Vets should know how to treat it.
