CPV infection is considered as the most pathogenic and contagious infection of dogs causing haemorrhagic gastroenteritis. Molecular detection using PCR is used widely for detection and confirmation of CPV infection in dogs. Present study was conducted to detect CPV in the faeces of dogs showing clinical signs of hemorrhagic gastroenteritis. A total of 52 dogs suffering from gastroenteritis were screened for the study, out of which 31 dogs were found to be affected with CPV infection. The occurrence of CPV infection was more in male (58.06 than female (41.94%) dogs. Labrador and non-descriptive breed dogs were found to have 22.59 percent occurrence each followed by GSD (19.36%) and Rottweiler (12.90%). Dogs with uneven history of vaccination were found to be affected more (64.52%) than dogs with history of proper vaccination. Maximum no. of dogs affected were from age group less than one year (93.55%) out of which most of the dogs were of less than 6 months age (67.74%). Suffering dogs were divided into random groups and administered with antibiotics, antioxidants and supportive therapy.
