When can I stop worrying about my puppy catching parvo after shots?

Question

I have a lab she is about 14weeks old..I'm honestly just wondering when I can stop being so spazzy over her catching parvo it's one of my biggest worries she's got her first set of shots and is due for the next set next Friday. She's been in our house for two weeks and the worse that's happened is a little while ago she threw up some hair and dog food and what my boyfriend thinks was a worm. Pet's info: Dog | Labrador Retriever | Female | 15 lbs

Raven is a cutie! It sounds like you are taking the appropriate precautions which is good. Her final set of vaccines will happen between 16 - 18 weeks of age. At her next appointment, discuss the vaccine schedule with her doctor. Vaccines take about a week to take effect and she will not be fully protected until after the last set. Collect the vomit in a baggie and call the vet tomorrow. They may want to see her or they may recommend and drop it off to have them examine it. Puppies can vomit up rounds worms which dewormers are highly effective against. I hope this helps!
