Parvovirus is highly contagious. A dog becomes infected with parvovirus when they swallow the virus. The virus is passed in the faeces of dogs sick with parvovirus. The virus itself is very hardy and can live in the ground for up to 12 months. Therefore it can be picked up from most areas that are visited by dogs.
