Parvo is horrid!!! And can stay on your place for a year. Its on your clothes, shoes, carpet, car, etc. Anywhere you or the puppy went, Parvo is there. You might want to rip out that little piece of carpet and bleach underneath it or use a good parvo-cide on the carpet. I brought Parvo home from my place of work. The person I worked with had a puppy with Parvo and never told me and she new that I had a new 7 week old litter. I lost 5 out of 7. You can also track it home from the vet on your shoes.
I would wait a long time to get another puppy. I would throw the kennel away also.
