My young puppy threw up once. What parvo symptoms should I watch for?

Question

Honey is 14 weeks old and from what I was told still at risk for parvo. She vomited tonight. Is there anything I need to watch for in her vomit? It has only happened once and was not a ton. Pet's info: Dog | Chihuahua | Female | spayed | 3 months and 9 days old | 11 lbs

Poor little puppy! I can give you a home remedy for Honey to see if that helps, as well as some things to look out for in terms of symptoms of parvo. Withhold food for 6 hours, then feed a bland diet of boiled white meat chicken (no bones) and white rice in small amounts several times a day for a couple of days. Then slowly add back in her normal diet. If the vomiting continues in the absence of food, she vomits the bland diet, develops diarrhea, she has blood in her feces, stops drinking water, starts vomiting water, or becomes very lethargic, she will need to see a vet right away. I hope this helps!
