Thank you for the kind and inspiring words. I am very hopeful that he will pull through. He is being well taken care of by a full-time foster mom who was trained by the Vet to administer his IVs and the Vet has been calling to check back in on them a few times a day.

They are all in caring and loving hands. I am so glad your friend's collie got through the Parvo. I have seen 11 days being the norm for Parvo puppies. Is this because they are there until a few days after they've been feeling better?
