It is unlikely that your dog will get parvo again, but I would make sure she has had all of her proper booster even after being treated. She will need to get a parvo vaccine yearly after that. Parvo can stay in the yard for up to a year without living in a host so I do not recommend bringing in any new puppies that aren't fully vaccinated (boosters every 3 weeks until they are ~15-16 weeks old) into your yard. I hope this helps!
