Keeping Pups in my kennels that are on a concrete slab gets messy real quick, so im wanting to move them to a 25x30 kennel which is on the ground. my question is what (if anything) could u put on your grass/ground to prevent puppies from getting parvo? My yard has a history of killing pups do to parvo and I'm curious to see if there's any type of remedy to wipe it out. Thanks

IMO
i raise all my pups on the ground . i also keep the mother with them until their first shot . worming them every 2 weeks from birth with Nimex.. i hit the mother good with wormer and heart worm before breeding too .. never had a problem until this year .. the only difference was the gyp stayed on her chain in the yard with the other dogs , i usally keep the gyp on a chain in the back the house .. keeps her stress down i find ..


but this year i saved one off a litter of 8 due to a new strain of parvo "from what my ole man said" hits the real early and you see no side effectes to catch it in time . one day the pups are all fat , hydrated & health , the next day they dropping off like flies !

if i was you , knowing you've had parvo in the yard already i wouldn't put'em down until you give them their first set of shots .. and once you do , keep it clean ..
