Just gotten back from the vets tonite with bow, this past few days he has had the runs, with some blood, and been just not himself so took him to the vet tonite, thinking he had eaten something he shouldnt have.

Vet has told me that he suspects Parvo in him, so given him jab of parvo formula, and anti-biotics. and told me to get some electrolite into him tonite as its crucial to keep up his fluid intake.

back to vet tomorrow nite with the other 2 dogs, then back to vet with bow

any advice would be appreciated ?


and anyone in my area beware its going round
