Hi! I'm new! My name is Ashlea, and I'm getting my first yorkie in 10 days! Her name is Kya and she will be almost 15 weeks old! Unfortunately, last Friday she came down with parvo, but she got sent home yesterday and they told me she is doing great now! I was just wondering if any one else has had to deal with parvo, and if there is anything special I need to do once she is home with me, besides keeping her away from other dogs and public areas. Thanks!:aimeeyork |
Welcome to YT!! Can't wait to see pictures!! |
Congrats on the new baby! I have never dealt with Parvo but I know some here have. Hopefully you will get some good responsed. Welcome to YT! |
Welcome to YT!! I am fairly new here too, but it has proven to be a terrific community! I haven't had to deal with parvo yet, luckily, but my Bailee has had kennel cough. It wasn't fun! Congrats on your new baby!! :D |
Welcome to YT!! Will Kya be clear of parvo when she comes to you? I don't know how long it lasts & that would be my biggest concern, because I know parvo can continue to live on surfaces for like 9 mths. if not treated properly. If you use the search option and search parvo - you will come up with a lot of threads & user names of people who have dealt with it. You may want to 1st go to the Sick & Emergency forum & then search for parvo - it will cut down on some of the threads that might not be applicable to you. |
The vet said that no one is sure how long they are contagious, it could be 14 days or 30 days, so she could still be contagious. But since they pass it through feces, and since she's the only dog in our home, I'm not sure how often or when I will need to bleach the things she comes in contact with. I've searched for it, and there were many responses how to react when your dog has parvo, but I haven't found much information about what happens after. Thanks for all the fast replies! |
Hi and Welcome to YT! idk anything about parvo, but i'm sure someone will be able to help you! :) |
