Granny's gone and done it again

[pertnear09]

I heard it only lasts for 1 year. And my mom was convinced to bleach everything (which isn't entirely possible). I had to mop the floor 4 times everyday, keep the dogs separate, but they still mostly all got it.

So you never got a dog for 10 years??

I sold the place after a few years, best I can remember.

Nope, unfortunately.

Panda died. It was very hard. Right before Christmas too. She was the one that had a booster and the first one to get it. Because it was our first time owning dogs and the first time dealing with parvo, we realized too late. It was a really bad idea and now looking back, I regret it so much.

The other two made it though. The only one that did not get it was Kiki, who didn't get parvo at all and she never got her booster shot, so I hope her immunity stays strong. Auggie and Snowball were the other two that got it. Its really complicated, since my mom had a "dog-frenzy" and bought one dog (Kiki) and then 2 more (Panda and Auggie). Then, Panda died or parvo, which was tested for and Auggie got it as well. After Christmas, my dad wanted another dog to "protect" the family. Thus, Snowball came along and she got parvo as well (as expected). I said no to all of the dogs and now I love them all! But I only take care of Kiki.

She probably got it from the booster

Did they have their puppy shots?

Did they have their puppy shots?

Yes. They were puppies still. They got their first shots at the previous owner's house and got boosters when they were with us.

ya it stays in the soil.

It dies over summer. Sun kills it. But parvo is everywhere.

Did they give them the vaccine themselves? Some vaccines you buy at the feed store haven’t been kept cold.

I honestly don't know. My sister is the one that got everything set up for the dogs. I am more of a chicken person than a dog person. I just take care of Kiki basically. My sister takes care of Auggie and Snowball. I only have the papers for Kiki. She got her vaccinations from the vet, but she never got parvo, so that doesn't really help much.

I didn't even go pick up the dogs or anything. As I said before, I was against dogs in the beginning. I am still not that okay with 3 dogs. Too complicated for me, I just need one dog. But now that they are here, they are family.

Bandit didnt get puppy shots as far as I remember.

Okay, I will sign off now. Need to get ready for tomorrow. Good night!
