Expert Answer

The parvovirus monoclonal antibody is an effective antibody against the parvovirus that boosts a dog’s antiviral ability and helps the immune system eliminate the virus. If a dog’s own antibodies are insufficient after infection, the shot strengthens resistance.

Serum can also be given to boost immunity; it is useful when symptoms suggest parvovirus but infection is not yet confirmed.
