Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Most 5 in 1 vaccines include Parvovirus. You will need to look at the type you gave. If the vaccines were given by a Vet then they contained a vaccine for parvo. If the vaccine you gave your dog did not contain parvo virus then you will have to give Lala 2 parvo vaccines 3 weeks apart for her to be protected. I do believe they make just a parvo vaccine I hope this helps.
