Hi I have a 4 month old puppy with Parvo. We had him at the vet today and she gave anti biotics and anti nausea meds and also darrows solution. He has had 115ml of solution and water mixed but am I giving enough? Also can i give him raw liver or should i stick to raw egg?

I would not give anything raw as this has potential to cause a bacterial infection in any animal. It is best to keep him hydrated and stick to cooked egg or chicken and rice if he has an appetite. Hydration is key. If he is holding that much down without vomiting then you are doing well.
