She was doing great this morning, walking around unassisted, making a small but solid bowel movement, drinking on her own repeatedly and sniffing her food. I went out for an hour and came back. She was laying out on the floor not breathing but I felt a faint heart beat. We rushed her down the...

OK I'll get her started on the Albon too. I started giving her small amounts of honey to boost her blood sugar, and an enema of Pedialyte with a dash of sea salt (found several veterinary websites recommending that for parvo puppies). She's actually started urinating again, twice in the last...

Quote: I'm feeding all of those things seperately btw...every few hours she gets something different. On top of all this I am required to give the promethazine and spectam 3x/day. They also have her on albon for coccidia but everything I am reading is saying to worry about de-worming/de-toxing...

Quote: Thank you, I will call him tomorrow morning about that.

My vet was closed today, I couldn't take her We're out of money to spend barring the visit that is scheduled as a follow-up for Saturday. Please also keep in mind I am driving a 12 y/o car with 206,350 miles that needed work this month too, literally 3 days before all this happened. My next...

Quote: What brand of insurance are you carrying? I looked into it for my 5 dogs and my 4 birds and it worked out to a couple hundred a month. Does it pay out better than human health insurance? My "great insurance plan" for myself was a joke

This is her bowel movement from this morning. It is the only one she has made since 11pm last night. I am sorry that this is graphic.

Quote: She has another appointment on Saturday morning, so I'll be getting her in again. The vet I was using is 80 miles round trip.

Here's a quick update. I woke up this morning to her in a different spot from where I left her. She had gone into the next room and let forth more diarrhea However, the diarrhea is thick and normal stool-colored (if not slightly blackish)...so this sounds good from my point of view because...

Question -- her diarrhea is lightening in color (it is like a very clear looking dark tan now) and has no offensive scent. Is that a good thing?

She's up and walking around this morning! The house still looks like a murder scene since she is eliminating bloody diarrhea. However, she is NOT vomiting. She made it a point to show me she was drinking water...she walked to the bowl, looked up at me, started drinking, and then looked up at me...

She is still rejecting food so I will leave her alone in that regard. I found a Parvo survival tea recipe. It is made of Pedialyte steeped with peppermint tea, chamomile, echinacea, and I added 2 aloe vera caplets for extra soothing and antiseptic properties. She doesn't like me force-feeding...

Hey guys -- question -- she just lay forth a HUGE puddle of blood-colored diarrhea. It is to be noted that it did not have any parvo smell though. She is also feeling poorly again. Should I bring her to the water bowl even though she can get up herself? Is this going to be part of the healing...

Quote: Oh I got the puppy from a shelter outside of Houston. My only dealings with WHS were with the daughter of one of the workers -- she gave me a big box of chickens that someone left them. I ended up raising them and giving them to a guy with a huge coop outside of Whitney. He raised them...

I apologize that I got upset laser, it's been stressful on me because in the grand scheme of things, I'm the loser in this, as is the doggie. Puppy is home -- the slap really is the vet bill -- they charged me $900 for her to sit in a kennel with IV's for 4 days. I got REALLY mad. She reeks of...

OK I kept my mouth shut on this even though it's been setting off my ulcer everytime I read someone "correcting" me about my near-dead dog's disease timeline, so I'll just say it...I am NOT blaming the shelter for "giving" my dog Parvo. I am a Biology teacher and I understand incubation times...

Pitbull has a fever now Not taking any chances, I'm taking her to the vet so she can have a temp taken when I pick up Junie. Wish me luck

Quote: I only have one bathroom, it's 6x10 feet and I'm halfway through painting it I'll try my mudroom. lol

I doubt she's going to want to be up and around, but should I keep her crated? What should I do about her defecating? She weighs 6 pounds so if she goes in the house I can clean it up easily, but I am worried about contaminating the other 4. But, right now the other 4 are banished outside so I...

She's coming home today!!!! They came in this morning and she was sitting up looking around Yayyy
