I'm curious, where did you get this information? According to everything I have ever learned about Parvo, and my vet..this is simply NOT true. Many dogs carry the antibodies to fight parvo, but this comes from being immunized.

When I spoke to you on the phone, you insisted that the only thing that would kill adeno was cleaning with ammonia....and since most folks don't clean their enclosures with ammonia, that was part of the reason it was so widespread.
