Is parvovirus treatable?

The symptoms of parvo can be treated, but there is no cure for parvo. It's unfortunately too often fatal, and dehydration is the number one cause of death in dogs with it. It's recommended to have dogs who are suffering from parvo be hospitalized to receive IV fluids, anti-emetics, antibiotics, and nutritional support. If you think Atlas may have parvo, he needs to see a vet immediately.
