I haven't heard of that one but I've heard of people having good results with Parvaid I think its called? I know you can find it on Amazon. I don't think either product would "hurt" even if she doesn't have parvo...but how fast can you get it, ya know? Unless you can buy it locally she will hopefully be out of the woods by the time it gets to you.

Oh gosh this is terrible Can I suggest something??? Be proactive incase it is parvovirus bleach your house top to bottom the dogs crates it must be done!!! Bella will catch it if it's parvovirus no doubt as it's highly contagious! Bleach and boiling water kill it!!! This includes any patio area too!! It has to be done daily I think!!! Also just wanted to add that vaccinations don't stop every strain of illnesses if she hadn't of had her vaccination you would of probably lost her by now this bug is deadly especially in our little guys  And ignore the vets chat about raw they don't know what theyre talking about Hope she is ok |

I have been waking up every 2 hours around the clock all night giving her some Pedialyte and the paste to her through the syringe exactly how Kristi told me to. She slept with us in bed all night, as I was afraid what I might find if I opened her crate in the morning. She is actually acting better. I think it's because she's hydrated. This morning she is actually moving and awake more. She can walk without being wobbly and almost falling. She is still not being Izzie at all though. Not playful at all, not trying to lick up our nose (which is a must for her)... But she is better. We will see more this next couple of days how the antibiotics effect her. I will take her temp in an hour or 2, but she doesn't feel feverish anymore, and trust me, I could tell before. And she is actually grooming herself right now..

That's wonderful that she is acting better, I'm so glad to hear it! Definitely a positive sign.  |

I agree with Paula. May be a small step but progress which is great. I was afraid that I'd be unpopular so I did not suggest it last night but there would be NO way that I'd kennel her when she was that ill. Just like my kids. Their bed is where they belonged at night. UNLESS they were sick. Then, I did as moms do. I slept in their bed with them, they in mine or I slept on the floor by their bed. I understand training and consistency but when they are sick, that should be an exception.
I sure hope that the day brings her feeling better and better (which will immediately do the same for you!!). I sure have been worried for you about her!!
