Would you believe me if I told you we are currently fighting Parvo? 😭💛

Would you believe me if I told you we are currently fighting Parvo? 😭💛

The 2nd picture is from the vet yesterday, the first was just a moment ago !

On Thursday evening he started having loose potties. He had an accident in the room that night, and I had to take him outside repeatedly… I only got two hours of sleep. 😞 I woke up to him just sitting on the side of my bed, looking like he was confused & asking for help…

The next day I called the vet & they were able to see me that afternoon, so I took off work. My mom actually kinda scolded me. She said I can’t keep taking him to the vet for every little thing, but I’m so glad that I did! I was even debating it myself for awhile, because other than the loose pottying he was 100% normal. Playing & eating…

Turns out he has Parvo. 😭 The staff at the vet also were kinda shocked bc he was jumping on everyone & being happy and playful. I think I caught it extremely early bc the only symptom he had was loose pottying, and it started less than 24 hours before I got him to the vet.

Anyway… he was able to get the Parvo antibody shot, but it was SO EXPENSIVE. $500 per 10 pounds & he is now 37 ! So I think they gave him 4 doses 😭

He’s feeling much better today. He has been eating & drinking the whole time, and his potties have slowly started becoming more solid. He is on a special food that’s easier on his tummy, some other stomach meds, and this photo is just from a moment ago.

I am so glad my baby is okay! I was so scared when they told me he has Parvo 😭 I hope it’s only up from here, but sadly we now are on house arrest for another month while he recovers !
