Yes, we are in Guam and for the life of me every time I step out my door I run across strays and dogs dead on the road, puppies running the streets I can hardly stomach it. The animal shelter is called G.A.I.N. or Guam animals in need and they don’t claim to be non-kill, they can’t afford to run the place. Guam has such a horrible economy that it doesn’t surprise me one bit that they put dogs down such as this, here recently Guam public schools shut down b/c there wasn't enough funding to feed the kids lunch, talk about corrupt and this place should come to mind, they are adding to the governor’s mansion at the top of the mountain but can't afford school lunches...

Oh My I am sorry , I thought you were in the US, well that word begining with A and ending in E is my mistake.
I do apologise.
I understand the economics of foreign countrys, sad for the Children and Animals.
I wish I could take the post back thank you for clarifying.

It's midnight here so no vet the ER vet wants $150, I can afford that... So we are waiting until morning, I'm afraid it's parvo.

I am sending positive vibes your way. What a beautiful puppy, it would be a shame if something happens to her. Good luck, I will be hoping for the best.

Keep pushing fluids in her. Use a syringe if you have one. Water, electrolytes (like gatorade). A lot of the times puppy with parvo die from dehydration instead of the parvo. Keep pushing fluids into her every 15-20 minutes. I realize that makes a long night for you, but the more fluids you can keep in her until the vet's office opens up, the better her chances!

 

[tiffanyh]

Stay strong! Keep us posted. Parvo can be treated so Im hoping she pulls through for you.......

I'm trying, my husband tried to get some lactated ringers so I could push sub-Q fluids but the stock room was locked and the person with the key wasn't there today, go figure. She is still peeing and has watery poo with no bloody-show so things are ok right now.
