My 3-month-old street puppy has parvo. Can it survive? What to do?

Question

Can a 3 month old pupoy survive parvovirus infection. If yes, please suggest how. It is a street dog.

Dr. Leigh, DVM · Accepted Answer

A 3 month old puppy can survive parvo virus but it usually takes veterinary care to prevent dehydration from the vomiting and diarrhea. Most dogs with parvo require intravenous fluids, anti-vomiting medications, antibiotics, and other medications to treat. He should be examined and treated by a vet, if possible, to confirm the diagnosis and treat. The prognosis without veterinary care is not good, especially if he has severe vomiting and diarrhea.
