Does anyone have any tips on home treating a puppy with Parvo. He's 2 months old and we've only had him for a week before he started having symptoms.

>Friday night, puppy starts vomiting
>Saturday puppy has diarrhea does not want to eat or drink, give him water through a syringe
>Saturday night through Sunday afternoon, he's bouncing around like it's all good
>Sunday night he's back to not drinking, to him to vet for overnight care
>Pick him up in the morning but vet says he wont make it without vet care throughout the day
>cant afford any more vet bills
>giving him pedialyte, a little bit of pepto and about to try some Collidial Silver someone suggested
>is there anything else I can do?

Start doing research now on how to be a responsible owner. You'll learn all kinds of helpful things such as don't adopt a pet if you can't afford medical treatment for the animal.
As far as anything you can do for your current dog that you have no business owning the best thing you can do at this point is start digging a hole.

not much. Parvo is a virus so there isn't a cure, all you can do is supportive care. Vets usually hook them up to IV fluids to keep them hydrated since the dog can't keep anything down. Other than trying to keep him hydrated and hopefully eating soon, you're kinda fucked. Odds are really against you.

Next time get him his fucking vaccines

He did get his 1st vaccine. His next one is due in a week.

Which would not have been a problem had you or the breeder waited the appropriate time pull the dog from its mother.

Now you know OP one of the reasons why it's recommended to adopt a dog no younger than 8 weeks old.

Don't give up hope. My 10 week old is on the fifth day of parvo and she started eating again just recently, I've been taking care of her with some help from family. All the vet did was give me penicillin, cerenia(for vomiting), and an electrolyte solution to take care of her. Make sure to keep your dog hydrated and comforted in isolation.

Thank you for the positivity.

The vet didn't give him any other med's besides the IV and something for the vomiting.

He's going on day 4, still not eating or drinking on his own. Still has diarrhea but no more vomiting. He's up and around, he even comes to me when I'm got his syringe with pedialyte. I'm trying a colloidal silver solution to help get fight the virus.

>>2370998
For the love of god, do not give your dog quackery like colloidal silver
>>
>>2370408
Why would you buy a pet if you can't afford vet bills? What the fuck? That's disgusting and irresponsible.
>>
>>2370998

Please don't give your dog some silver solution.

Look, you have two options: scrape together the money to keep the dog at the vets on IV fluids (which will give him the best possible chance) or pray.

Really, the dog needs to be under constant medical supervision with access to various types of IV fluid at the drop of a hat.
