Sick pups

[Jason Dunn]

  Rewind 4 week my brother came up to get one of my pups he liked 2 of them so we took those 2 down to the hog pen to see if he which one was more keen. Both pups went strait into the woods one came back 10 min latter the other came back 9 days latter I had gone back to work by then and my wife said he looked bad and wouldn't eat and was vomiting. I figured he had eaten something bad while on the lamb but he died 2 day latter. He was around my other pups and my wife says they all got diarea and were vomiting she put the 3 that looked the best in a pen together and the sickest one she left out he is still alive and tries to drink and has had horrible diarea my wife said he ate a tiny bit of can dog food but he still looks bad. I am at work but this sounds like parvo I have never had an issue with parvo where I am and regretfully didn't vaccinate for it I assume the pup picked it up in the woods somewhere. The 3 in the pen are totally fine and wife says eating good now the 1 and only experience I have had with pavo was years ago and it killed a whole litter of beagles. I have 2 questions does this sound like parvo to you guys and can I vaccinate the remaining pups for parvo when I get home without effecting them if they were recently exposed.

It does sound like parvo, but sounds like corona too. The 1 thats still a lil down in the dumps, puree some beef liver and eggs and try to get it to eat as much as it will, also, give it a couple hundred cc of iv fluid sub q to keep it hydrated. The liver and eggs will replenish the iron and protien loss from being sick. Try putting 10-15cc of pepto in its stomach or plain ole' white yogart to coat the stomach to help with the vomiting and the yogart helps to put healthy enzymes back in the stomach.

As judge said, but iv seen heavy rains bring it in, or at least float it to the surface, plus birds and people can bring in your yard. If you go walking somewhere else and a dog that has it has dropped its load and you step in it, you can trackbit hm.
