My friend Ashley adopted a border collie and 4 days after bringing it home she (ZELDA) got parvo. She was very sick
She spent 11 days in the vet on IV fluids and under vet care. She has completely recovered now! You could never tell she has had such a near death experience! She is 2 years old now and you can not ask for a happier job. When she was sick the vet said that the major focus is keeping them from getting dehydrated until they get over the sickness.
