A healthy adult dog needs a rabies shot every three years, and a distemper shot every 2 to 5years. Over vaccinating can lead to severe reactions and/or cancer.

Could a 3 year old dog get parvo even if they have had all their shots?

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 But if you gave your own vaccinations, which is fine, unless the vaccinations were outdated or maybe were not kept cold, etc.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.
