I'm sorry to hear about Wuero. Since Coco is also acting sick I suspect he has parvo too. The virus is extremely contagious and he has been exposed to it. I recommend taking Coco to the vet to be tested. He may need to be hospitalized on IV fluids and IV medications to treat his symptoms. He is very young and the virus is very strong. I recommend early treatment to prevent him from getting worse. Good luck and kisses to Coco!
