Summary. The aim of the research is to conduct retrospective study of canine parvovirus in private veterinary clinic ‘Health’ in the Sumy region, Ukraine. Because of the widespread nature of the CPV infection and paucity of information on its epidemiology in Ukraine, it is necessary to carry out a retrospective study of the disease in Ukraine. Data on reported and confirmed cases of CPV infection, which was presented to private veterinary clinic ‘Health’ (Sumy), between 2015 and 2018 was reviewed. The data were sorted according to age, sex, breed, as well as treatment and vaccination status. The overall prevalence rate was 2.1%. Age, sex, breed, vaccination status showed association with the rate of infection. 43 (68.3%) puppies younger than 6 months old had higher incidence rate than those ones older than 6 months. Males (36 individuals, 57.1%) were more affected than females (27, 42.9%), while exotic breeds (43, 68.3%) were more affected than local breeds (20, 31.7%) and the number of recovered dogs (59, 93.7%) was higher than those who died (4, 6.3%). However, the majority of dogs was not vaccinated (46, 73.0%) in comparison to vaccinated dogs (17, 27.0%). The incidence (25, 40.0%) was observed in 2017. In conclusion, there is high prevalence of CPV infection in Ukraine with young, male and exotic breeds being affected much more than old, female and local breeds. Low incidence of death rate among the affected dogs may be attributed to successful immunization against the disease.
