Stupid question on vac's

[Loula]

OK so my dog is due for his annual health check and vaccination boosters

My stupid question is i know he will get the parvo virus booster, but can someone tell me is this a live vaccine and could it cause me harm being pg as i have no immunity to parvo virus (otherwise know as slapcheek in humans) or am i barking up the wrong tree (pardon the pun) and these have no links????

Thanks

Baahahahah... that would be me The parvo virus vaccination is mainly killed, you can get the live vaccination but it is unusual. You'd have to check with your vet directly (and a phone call should suffice ) I have looked it up on the veterinary information and parvovirus is NOT a zoonotic disease, meaning you can NOT catch it from your dog.

I hope this eases your worry .

Thanks Christy, (i was hoping you would answer! hehe)

I just rang and booked in with the vet and they are all live vac but will not pose a problem to me being pg, DH will be taking him anyway and he cleans up the mess in the yard so i should be right

Thanks again x
