Also YorkieMom1 knows very well how to handle this as unfortunately she had to deal with this in her home.

Right now go on the assumption that she has pavro. Try to close off shut doors of rooms that neither you nor she have been in. CAuse if it is pavro basically everywhere you and your pup have gone in your house will need dis infecting. Then there will be the outside too. This includes your car as well.
Lets hope for the best and that it is not pavro

I am very glad that you joined YT, there is a wealth of information here and lots of support for each other.

Also please don't despair, she is at your vet's now, and YT prayers have been known to do some amazing things.

Welcome and I will keep you both in my prayers and in the light.
We are going to continue to pray this is NOT parvo....they can do a "snap test" at the vet and it will give them a pretty good idea if the baby has parvo....has the vet done a "snap test" for parvo? (If it is parvo, as "gemy" has said, you are going to have to do MAJOR cleaning to kill the virus that is shed. CLOROX DOES NOT KILL PARVO....you will need to get an anti-viral that is specific to the virus....you can order the solution on line....you need to wash anything she has touched....toys, bedding, YOUR clothes worn when you held Dizzy, etc.....it can be washed in your washing machine with the solution....the rest of the house will have to be wiped down ....floors, furniture, crates, playpen, baby gates, furniture, etc.....and then your yard....any place that baby has walked, as well as any place YOU have walked after being where the puppy was...it has been carried on YOUR shoes, all over your home and yard....I got a garden sprayer, mix up the Virkon solution in the sprayer, and spray everything down.....itis a horrible tough job, and it only takes one time for you to experience this, and you will shudder in terror if anyone ever mentions "parvo" to you ever again. I can help you with details, if this is what you are facing....we can cross that bridge if we need to. There is another breeder on here...memory fails me who it is, but she will also come forward with information as she also uses Virkon.....I learned about the solution for the laundry from her....
