1 week ago, my 5 month old vaccinated Shih Tzu beat Parvo.

It was a shock for all of us, the only symptoms started and seen was bloody stool at morning, rushed him to a hospital, got him tested for parvo and my heart was on the ground when the results came back positive, I was in shock and felt nothing but pain and adrenaline. His vaccination records were perfect and he was in isolation (home) for 2 weeks without an outdoor walk. He was on saline for a few minutes in the hospital, and took him to a nearby clinic recommended by his regular vet, where he gained his playfulness slowly, but steadily. Nothing could make me happier than watching him be eager for food and eating like his usual self. He was completely normal the next morning, with normal stool.

However, no doctor could ascertain how he did end up being positive for parvovirus, he did meet 2 retrievers and an indie (adult, fully vaccinated), and was indoors full-time.

I could not fathom losing him so I gave him the best I could for his recovery, and as of today, he is completely healthy and back to normal, (still being extra careful)
And his name is Keanu, and he’s a good brave boy.
