It is not likely if your dog had the initial series of vaccinations when young then yearly boosters. But if you gave your own vaccinations, which is fine, unless the vaccinations were outdated or maybe were not kept cold, etc. Then the booster vaccinations may have not given your dog the immunity needed. If your Veterinarian always gave the vaccinations, then it would very unlikely your dog would get parvo. You should take your dog into to be checked out by your Veterinarian, they can do a parvo test right in the office. Also has your dog eaten any raw salmon or trout lately? Salmon poisoning has the same symptoms as Parvo so all the more reason to take your dog into be checked out by a Vet. You don't want to risk your dog's life.
Maybe a year. But unvaccinated, you will encounter Parvo everywhere. Vets office, pet store, other dogs, dog parks, even your backyard.Treatment for parvo at the vet with 50/50 odds can start at $1000-3000. It's better to get the $30 shot.
DHLP/Parvo vaccine. You can also get the vaccine with Corona added too. The vaccine is for Distemper, Hepatitis, Lepto, Parainfluenza & Parvo. A pup needs a series of vaccines (check with your Veterinarian) and thereafter, a booster once a year.

Yes. Dogs can get parvo at any age, and must be vaccinated asap. BUT if your dog has parvo and gets a vaccine when it is sick, it will most likely die. So be absolutly sure that your pet is tested before receiving the vaccination.
Request a titre blood test at your vet to find out your dogs immunity level to Parvo and watch closely for symptoms.
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.
She could have something as simple as a stomach ache but a vet is your best option. It could be something much worse, like parvo...
They can get a form of feline Parvo called Panleukopenia Virus. It's alot like the dog's parvo virus but only cats can get it. we had an out break of it when we rescued a new litter of kittens, all of the kittens died because they were unvaccinated, we have 4 older cats who were vaccinated & they are just fine it didnt effect them. Its spread through sharing living area's & eating out of the same bowl, as well as drinking out of the same water dish as an infected cat. Areas infected with feline panleukopenia need to be disinfected with a bleach solution. There is also treatment available. Prevention through routine vaccination is extremely effective.
