MEMPHIS, Tenn. -- The Bartlett Animal Shelter is closed for intake due to a dog with Parvovirus.

According to the city, a parvo-positive dog was recently brought into the shelter.

The illness is highly contagious, so the shelter has decided to not take anymore dogs for at least the next ten days.

They say if you find a lost dog, you can still give the shelter a call, but they suggest posting pictures of the pet online in Facebook groups. Or by visiting a local veterinarian's office to scan for a microchip.
