That is truly sad. This happens too often. The incubation for parvo I have read can be anywhere from 3 to 14 days. This pup was 7 weeks old and had already had one shot and was due the second one? The pup was too young to be vaccinated to begin with. Shame on the breeder for selling the puppy so young. The puppy buyer should have used more cautious and should not have taken the pup to places where the pup could get parvo. It sounds to me like the pup was probably had a weak immune system already and that made her more susceptible to the parvo. I hope the breeder and buyer and others have learned something from this tragic story.
