Parvo virus is cureable at home!

Tweet

Alot of people asume that parvo is the end of their dog's life. No! It's not! I got Yuna when she was 6 weeks old from a local animal shelter. Before the week was up she had parvo. Vet stated she had it from the shelter. I cried about it and was pretty angry at the same time. I pushed for the answers to getting her better with out keeping her at the vet because I had not that much money to keep her there. Here is what I had to do: They gave me antibiotic. I had to get gatoraid and pedilite (both for electrolytes for energy). I had to CONSTANTLY make her take that and water from a syringe. The virus its self does not actually kill the dog...the dogs often pass away from dehydration. The key is to keep your dog hydrated for 7 days...after that dogs are in the clear. Don't give them the parvo shot while they have parvo...thats giving them a dbl dose of the virus thus will kill them faster. Has anyone had to deal with parvo? How did you deal with it?
