Parvo puppy stopped vomiting/diarrhea but won't eat. Is it recovery?

Question

Choot is not pooping and vomiting for 3 days. She's not eating as well. The only thing that she intakes is dextrose powder. Is that a sign of recovery from parvo? Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed | Female | 4 months and 5 days old | 6.5 lbs

Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! I am not sure I fully understand your question. I am assuming that Choot has Parvo virus and he is no longer vomiting or defecating (was having diarrhea) but is still not eating well and only taking dextrose powder? If he is recovering from Parvo and is no longer vomiting that is a good sign he is likely getting better. I would ask your Vet for syringes and a canned food you can blenderize and force feed Choot. You can slowly and gently syringe the canned food in to his mouth. The key now is to get food in him and allow recovery of his intestinal lining. Hopefully with in a few days he will then start eating on his own. I hope this helps and I wish Choot a continued recovery!
