Help us provide lifesaving parvo treatment to sick shelter puppies
The Animal Foundation is using a first-of-its-kind USDA conditionally approved treatment for the contagious and deadly Canine Parvovirus. The Canine Parvovirus Monoclonal Antibody (CPMA) is a revolutionary therapy that targets and neutralizes the virus directly, drastically improving survival rates.
Unlike traditional methods that only manage symptoms, CPMA offers a real chance at recovery, often improving clinical signs in as little as 24 hours.
Before this new treatment, the only way to treat parvo was through extremely expensive around-the-clock care which managed the symptoms of the disease and may prevent the dog from dying but didn’t actually fight the virus itself.
CPMA on the other hand, is a dose of synthetic parvo antibodies that prevent the disease from ever affecting the dog’s cells. Each vial costs $220 dollars and depending on the dog’s size, some may require multiple vials; this cost is in addition to other supportive care therapies. Since we received our first doses in July, we have treated 23 dogs.
However, we urgently need your support to continue this lifesaving work. Without donations, we cannot continue to provide this treatment to more dogs.
In 2023, The Animal Foundation took in more than 100 dogs with parvo, which is an average of one case in the shelter every 3 days.
Please, consider donating today to help us order more CPMA and save more lives. Your contribution will make a direct impact on shelter dogs fighting for their lives against parvo. These dogs have no one else and are counting on us. Together, we can give them a fighting chance.
