Is my vaccinated puppy at risk of parvo after touching a parvo item?

Question

Hi. How many shots does a puppy need to be considered as having completed primary vaccination series? My 6mos old Maltese has 4 shots already of the 5in1 vaccine and has recently sniffed an item (lightning charging cable) that was exposed a week ago to a puppy who died of parvo (used that cable to charge my phone while I was watching over the parvo infected puppy confined in the vet clinic). Is my Maltese at risk? Thank you. Pet's info: Dog | Maltese | Female | unspayed | 4.4 lbs

Your puppy should be ok. She has had all of her puppy vaccines and therefore should be protected from getting parvo. However, if you notice any of these symptoms: lack of appetite, lethargy, vomiting, or diarrhea take her to see a veterinarian ASAP so that they can make sure she does not have parvo. Hope this has helped. Thank you for using pet coach.
