Years ago I too use to buy my vaccines from feed stores until I heard that is was not a good idea. You never know if they have been properly stored plus in our area they only sell the 7 in 1 shots and I would never again give that to one of my babies. I order mine now from Revival, distemper and parvo only.

From what I have read cats do not get parvo, they get something called Panleukopenia Virus and it is not transmitted to dogs. I guess if you ever have stray dogs in your yard you could have tracked it in that way. I still have to wonder if the puppy actually has parvo. If she does then I would be concerned about the other puppies. Has this puppy had anything stressful going on the last few days prior to being sick? Often puppies can be in contact with the parvo virus but not have an outbreak until they get stressed about something.
