A puppy who has just receieved a parvo vaccine can touch the ground immediately, as long as they are not in direct contact with a canine who has the parvo virus. It is unlikely for a puppy to contact parvo immediately after vaccination.
no
A puppy of ANY breed of dog that is suspected to have Parvovirus needs immediate vet care. Parvo can kill a puppy within hours.
Parvo is caught by inhaling, eating, bacteria from poo. You should give all puppies their full set of vaccinations, parvo is really dangerous and unless you want your puppy to die you should give it its vaccinations
Please contact a vet
Technically you can, but it would be unlikely. A high dose of parvo would come from being in contact with infected feces. Also, if you feel that your dog may be in danger of parvo and you can't afford the vet bills there is a company that will help diagnose your dog for free look up they were very helpful for me.
No. Parvo is a disease ONLY in dogs that attacks the cells in the GI tract. This disease is not zoonotic (humans cannot catch it) and neither can felines. Felines can get another form of parvo called panleukopenia unrelated to Parvo with similar symptoms. But dogs can't catch it from cats and vice versa.Source: Veterinary Technician at an emergency and specialty hospital.
The nephew must had got parvo from coming in contact with the puppy's feces.
An emergancy Vet visit.
The same thing was going on with my 4 month old puppy... We took her to the vet and it was Parvo. Within 7-10 days after coming in contact with Parvo a puppy will become ill. Parvo can be given to a puppy many ways. Even if a puppy has not come in contact with any other dogs. Parvo can be transmitted through human shoes if you walk on ground that has been contaminated. It can also come from birds the tires on your vehicle etc. Parvo lives in many different climates and temperatures and is very serious. I would recomend looking up several sights on Parvo to find more information... And good luck to your puppy
It is actually possible--see a vet if you suspect parvo ASAP.
No!! The only treatment is hydration and veterinary care
