Canine parvovirus (CPV) the causative agent of canine parvovirus enteritis is an intractable pathogen of dogs characterised by mutations, evolutionary changes and eventual vaccine failure. The disease is a serious problem in dogs with limited studies conducted in Nigeria. Therefore, this study was designed to characterise the subtypes of CPV isolates in six commonly used vaccines and 157 clinical samples collected from seven states in Nigeria from June 2016 to March 2018. Faecal samples collected from the clinical cases were subjected to in-clinic immunoassay to detect viral antigens. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was used to amplify viral VP2 gene in the samples and commonly used vaccines in Nigeria. Thereafter, PCR products were sequenced and analysed. The result showed that 93.0% of the dogs tested positive for CPV in both assays; 72.8% were puppies less than six months old, with 58.3% of them vaccinated. Partial VP2 gene sequence and phylogenetic analysis of 11 random clinical samples showed that CPV-2c 7(63.6%) and CPV-2a 4(36.4%) were the predominant subtypes in Nigeria; with genetic signatures that are 98.7% to 99.9% closely related to Asian and European strains, respectively. No CPV-2b was detected. Amino acid mutation analysis divulged some imperative transmutation sites: D305Y, Y324I, Q370R, N375D, T440A, Y444S, I447M and Y451C in the isolates. The viruses in the vaccines were characterised as the wild-type CPV. The genetic variability, viral population heterogeneity and phylogenetic linkage with isolates from other countries probably suggest transboundary migrations and local differentiations are contributing to continuous CPV evolution and vaccine failure in Nigeria.
