The aim of this research was to determine the prevalence of liver damage using the enzymes Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT) and Aspartate Aminotransferase (AST) in puppies diagnosed with canine parvovirus (CPV), in the district of Trujillo. 33 dogs up to 12 months of age were sampled, from veterinary clinics between December 2023 and July 2024, which had not received any medication prior to the consultation. After the anamnesis of the patients and taking of clinical signs, the fecal sample was taken for the canine parvovirus test. Once the data and the positive test were obtained, the blood sample was extracted by venipuncture, it was sent to the VetHelp clinical laboratory to obtain the results of the liver enzymes. Statistical analysis of the data was performed using the IBM SPSS Statistics program version 26, a descriptive analysis to calculate the averages, where the results obtained were that there is a greater number of cases of 51.5% when both enzymes are within normal ranges (ALT ≤40U / L and AST ≤65U / L) than when only one of them is elevated (ALT = 9.1% and AST = 18.2) and / or both elevated with 21.2%, showing the lack of liver damage in puppies with canine parvovirus. On the other hand, the relationship between age and enzyme elevation was also analyzed, where p values = 0.288 for ALT and p = 0.591 for AST were obtained, indicating that there is no significant association. Regarding the relationship between sex and enzymes, it was also found that the calculated odds ratios of 1.154 for ALT and 0.778 for AST suggest that the relative risk of liver damage associated with sex is low and also lacks statistical significance. Therefore, it was concluded that the variables studied in relation to enzymes do not present statistical significance due to the sample size, and in turn, thanks to the higher percentage of puppies with CPV that present their enzymes within the normal range, a possible liver damage due to parvovirus is ruled out
