Is Your Pup Feeling Ruff? Canine Parvovirus Might Be the Culprit!

Canine Parvovirus (CPV) is a nasty bug that can make your furry friend very sick. But don't worry, there are ways to fight back!

The CPV rapid test is a valuable tool in the fight against canine parvovirus.

What is a CPV rapid test？

A CPV rapid test is a quick and easy way to check your dog for parvovirus. It uses a swab to collect a stool sample and can give results in as little as 10 minutes.

Why test for CPV？

Early detection of CPV is crucial for your dog's health. This test can help:

Quick diagnosis: Identify the infection promptly.

Effective treatment: Start treatment early to improve recovery.

Prevent spread: Protect other pets and your family from the virus.

Do I need a home CPV test？

If your dog is showing signs of CPV, like vomiting, diarrhea, or loss of appetite, a home test can be a good first step. But remember: a positive test result means a trip to the vet for proper treatment.

How does the CPV rapid test work？

The CPV rapid test, often using immunochromatography, detects CPV antigens in dog feces. The CPV Ag Rapid kit is for fecal samples, while the CPV Ab Rapid kit checks for antibodies in blood.

What do the results mean？

Two lines: Your dog might have CPV.

One line (control line): Likely no CPV.

No lines: The test might be faulty. Try again with a new one.

Are There Vaccines for CPV？

Vaccination is the most effective prevention method against CPV. Most canine parvo vaccines are part of standard vaccination programs, significantly reducing the risk of infection.

FAQ

Which types of samples can be used on the at-home parvo test？ Canine feces can be used fresh, previously frozen, or stored at 2–8°C for up to one week.

Does the test cross-react with other enteric pathogens？ No, the CPV test is particular for canine parvovirus (CPV); there is no cross-reaction with other enteric pathogens.

Is the CPV test accurate？ All POCT diagnostics have high specificity and positive predictive value. For example, Tashikin™ CPV Ag Rapid Test can achieve a positive predictive rate of up to 99%.

How do the kit components need to be stored？ Store at 2–8°C until the expiration date. Before running the test, all components must be at room temperature (18–25°C). Do not heat.
