Has anyone had a dog get Parvo, even after having all their shots?
Leo is to date on all his shots and just had a DHPP on Oct 1.
Poor Leo has been sick since Sunday, with bouts of vomiting and diarrhea.
First thing on Monday... I called the vet to see what I should do. They ask me to being him in. The vet ended up keeping Leo for the day so they could give him fluids, pain medicine, run blood work and give him some medications to hopefully stop the vomiting and diarrhea. When I went back to pick him up, they didn't know what was wrong. But hoped that all that they had done...would start him on his way... to a quick recovery. They gave me instructions for the night and we made a follow up appt for the next morning. I brought Leo home & he slept most of the night.
This morning I took Leo back to the Vet. On our drive over... he had another bout of diarrhea. The poor guy! I had to carry him into the vet with poop all over him.
He ended up spending the day at the vet again. The vet called me tonight to give me an update. He told me that they think that Leo has Parvo. They are running a parvo test and the results are suppose to be back tomorrow. Poor Leo had to stay at the vet tonight!
I hate it that my DH is traveling this week, so I am dealing with the dog and the kids (4) all by myself. I think I feel more pressure to make all the
right decisions.
I have spent ALL evening on the internet looking up everything I can about Parvo. So, I will be a little more prepare when I talk with the doctor tomorrow.
