Sammy, my 3 month old Boxer Mix Foster has Parvo...He came in with his brother from the shelter and his brother Dean went with another foster. Dean was a little sick on Sunday and Sammy wasn't 100% laat night. This morning Sammy had diarrhea and Dean ended up at the emergency vet. Tests came back positive for Parvo...tonight they are snuggling together with their head collars on and IVs in their sweet little legs as they get a concoction of anti-nausea meds, fluids and anti-biotics. We caught it pretty early I think so hopefully they will be fine.
Needless to say it's expensive to go to the emergency vet. The bill for Dean was over $200 today alone and saving money, I helped (with a vet tech) do Sammy on our own. If you can spare it, please consider making a donation by clicking the link below. Thank you!

ReplyDeleteThat is awesome you taking care of them. I use to live next to a kennel and would go over and help my neighbor with the dogs. I loved it. Would love to do something like that again. To bad we don't live closer, would try to help you out :-) They are so cute!
ReplyDeleteHang in there LG. Help is on the way.
