The likelihood of a dog surviving parvo depends on a variety of factors such as:
In general the younger the dog is and the sooner it is diagnosed and treated the better the chances of recovery. In many cases puppies are successfully treated for parvo and make a full recovery. However the mortality rate for parvo can be as high as 91% so the likelihood of a dog surviving parvo is not guaranteed.
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.

Symptoms of parvo in puppies include vomiting, diarrhea, lethargy, and loss of appetite. Unfortunately, if a puppy has died from parvo, there are no treatment options available. It is important to prevent parvo through vaccination and proper hygiene practices.
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
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.
Yes, a puppy can still get parvo after vaccination, but the risk is significantly reduced. Vaccination is the best way to protect against parvo, but it is not 100 effective. It is important to follow the recommended vaccination schedule and practice good hygiene to minimize the risk of infection.
The nephew must had got parvo from coming in contact with the puppy's feces.
It is actually possible--see a vet if you suspect parvo ASAP.
