Granny's gone and done it again

So sorry he has parvo granny. BUT he would have had to pick it up from somewhere which means your other dogs are also at risk. And you've had him awhile right? Fluids are good. Diarrhea, vomiting and lack of food doesn't kill parvo dogs but it's the dehydration from it. As far as vaccines go. Inproper storage of the vaccines is usually what you have to worry about at stores. Also call your TSC and find out if they do the clinic days. Price is reduced and an actual clinic brings the vaccines and supplies.

They do that but Im not waiting on them. I can give it myself. Forgot about their clinic. Yes, I have had him (guessing) 6 months. I believe they keep them in a fridge. Thank you.

I wonder if that bone broth would do pup good ? If they get him drinking. Or Maybe I could give it a go for when he comes home ? I dont know if I said already there is about a 70% chance on survival

I read 70% online too. Did the vet tell you that? Could depend on his condition. They have that antiviral for people, forget what it's called. Wonder if they have something like that for dogs.

Good luck! Too bad you don't have access to IV fluids...

Hi all, been home for about 45 mins. trying to catch up.
its not good news for pup and then it is. 
We went to the vet and she is asking questions and she thinks blockage and wants xrays and said it will be surgery and I was talking I mentioned I got him from the amish so he didnt get shots. She stopped what she was doing . stuck a q-tip up his butt and gave me the terrible news of parvo. She said we dont have a way to treat here so I have called another vet who can treat him. He needs to be hospitalized and giving supportive care and he may or may not make it even then.  they started closing doors, and made us carry him out. He is very contagious. 
The good part ?  I went to pay and it seems I have a donor for the bill !     I get to the other vets and guess ? Yup !  They have already talked to donor as well. Unbelievable.  I dont know what to say.   I have an angel.  

Very strange even without shots I find it hard to believe he has parvo but I guess if the test came back positive. What can I say

 

[Granny Hatchet]

Thats great news Daxigait. I kinda like that old man.

thank you for letting us know. Sally knows right ? Told her I would tell her.



guys, I got chickens to feed . BRB

Usually they have horrible diarrhea and vomiting. I did have an older puppy that got it and that didn't for a few days. We treated her at home

Glad you got him to the vet
