Hello. Generally, once recovers from Parvo, they go on the have a perfectly normal life. But with severe infections, there can be quite a delay in recovery of overall body condition. If Tyson is eating well, is parasite free, has normal bowel movements, he should mature to his full potential. It might just take a little longer as he tries to catch up to the losses he had during his illness. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.
