Dappv vaccine CAN give a false positive parvo test

The DA2PPV vaccine is a combination vaccine that protects dogs against several diseases, including canine distemper, adenovirus, parvovirus, and parainfluenza virus. It is a core vaccine recommended for all dogs.

The DA2PPV vaccine is a modified live virus (MLV) vaccine. This means that it contains a weakened version of the viruses it protects against. When a dog is vaccinated with an MLV vaccine, their immune system is stimulated to produce antibodies against the viruses. These antibodies will then protect the dog from future infection.

One potential side effect of the DA2PPV vaccine is that it can cause a false positive on a parvovirus test. This is because the vaccine contains a weakened version of the parvovirus, which can be detected by the test. If your dog has recently been vaccinated with the DA2PPV vaccine and tests positive for parvovirus, it is important to consult with your veterinarian to determine whether the test result is a false positive.
