I have a blue heeler, who we have purchased a 3 way immunization shot for, including parvo. we were ready to give the dog the shot, but the dog developed symptoms of parvo, so we're holding off on the shot. The pup is 6 months, and has found a way to sneak out of the yard and came in contact with some ruddy looking dogs that are chained in a neighbors yard. He lost his appetite (usually ravenous), wouldn't touch water, wouldn't eat, lethargic, stool was bloody, slimy, and smelled terrible, and puked up a frothy looking white and orange mess.
So not being able to afford a trip to the vet for intravenous fluids, we got him some electrolytes that are usually given to horses (very concentrated), and some terramycin (antibiotic to prevent blood infection). Shortly after squirting 35 ml of that solution into his mouth he started eating, and even drank about 16 oz of water. He seems more energetic now, and I'm doubting if it was even parvo, anyone have another ideas?
You need to keep that treatment up for at least a week so he doesn't relapse.
u really need to get that dog to the vet now. most vets will allow u to set up a payment plan if u dont have the money to pay for the visit. so just call ur vet and ask him if this would be ok. he really needs some vet care
You really should take this puppy to a vet asap. The breeder should have started parvo shots before he ever left.
You need to get that dog to a vet, have him tested for parvo, and if it is not parvo, get him the immunizations.
You also need to make sure he is safe and not running free.
you can also use parvo guard that is what i used to get my dog better just this week. i also used sub q fluids and you need amoxill or tamaflu to treat other infections that can be happening.i took her to the vet and they started treatment for 12 hours and then i had to take her home because of costs but i used the parvo guard starting tuesday and friday she was cleared by the vet
here is there link and my web page on a little how i treated her parvoguard.com
