My 4 month old puppy. She is a mix of a poodle and chiuawa. She won't eat or drink anything she just lays there and moans. Earlier she was bleeding pretty bad from her rectum and she was voitoming and had dirriah.

Take her to the vet! Is there an emergency clinic nearby?

If you yourself had the same symptoms, what would you do?

No there is no emergency clinic. I would go to the hospital if it was me, but there is no emergency hospital for her.

How long has she been this way? Is there a vet nearby?

You do realize she could be dead by morning.

My stepdad is giving her pedialyte to hydrate her.

She probably has parvo which means she needs a vet to keep her alive. She needs to be given water especially.

If you bring another puppy into your house or wherever she is, the new puppy can get sick too. Parvo is highly contagious.

Some of the Dogs experts will see this and add more to what I've said.

Has your dog ever seen a vet or gotten her puppy shots?

Can you get her to the vet tomorrow?

Are you a vet?

No, I'm not. I'm a cat person. This question has been asked here so many times, I know by heart how to answer. Look at some of the past questions on the Dogs forum.

We were going to get her shots but she got sick.so she didn't get her shots. She never went to a vet,she was a healthy dog before she got sick.

What's porvo caused from? Would it cause her to poop out blood clots?

Can you take her to the vet tomorrow?

We have to come up with $900 for her to be seen.

Parvo is a virus that attacks the lining of the digestive system and is very deadly. The symptoms include dehydration, lethargy, loss of appetite, vomiting, bloody diarrhea.

Symptoms come on fast, and once it hits every hour makes survival less likely. If this is parvo (which none of us can diagnose over the internet) that your pup needs a vet asap.

Right now giving her pedialyte is the best course of action. Keep her hydrated. You will be up all night because you cannot leave her over night without dosing her with pedialyte.

There's no cure. Vets can only treat the symptoms, but they are far better equipped to do so than you are. Keeping her hydrated is only one of the things to do during this illness. She could require a blood transfusion, she needs antibiotics etc. etc.

Even with treatment there's still a high fatality rate, but you do lower the odds considerably by going to a vet.

Please, get her to a vet as soon as possible. Until then keep an eye on her keep feeding the pedialyte and hope for the best.

Why so much money just to be seen? My vet charged less than $100 for shots and spaying for my cat -- and I'm in an upper-middle-class Chicago suburb.

Work out a deal with the vet -- a payment plan or something.

It will cost 300 dollars for her to be checked out and another 500 to be treated

Will you take her to the vet?

It will cost 300 dollars for her to be checked out and another 500 to be treated

Either you take her to the vet and hope she pulls through (there's no guarantee with parvo, even under a vets care), or you keep her at home and if it is parvo, you watch her die.

If money is tight than phone around and ask if any of the vets will do a payment plan. You'd be surprised how many will, especially when it's something life threatening like this.

Here's more info on parvo and the treatment of parvo.

This is serious. I'm not trying to scare you, I'm telling you that even under a vets care this disease is horrible and a large percentage of dogs don't make it. Without a vet your dogs chances are slim to none.

Of course you can sit at home and hope that it isn't parvo, but your dog has the symptoms, and she's the right age, no shots. I wouldn't take that chance.

I don't know why it cost so much. I talked to one of the vets before and she told me it will cost 300 up front and the other 500 upon discharge.

Okay, you know the cost. The question is, will you take her to the vet?

Truth is, $800 to treat for parvo is pretty cheap. At least compared to what it would cost in my town.

There's no vet closer than 3 hrs. away? Are you in Montana?

Yes I will take her to the vet. I will try my hardest to come up with the money. I Don't want her to die on us she's like my child she is so spoiled and cute. No matter what it takes I will try.

Thank you so much for the advice. I'm going to take care of my baby. One more question can a child get parvo?

Thank you!!

can a child get parvo?
Wikipedia said something about that --

Humans can be infected by viruses from three other genera from the family Parvoviridae, such as by Parvovirus B19, but no members of the genus Parvovirus are currently known to infect humans.

Yes i will take her to the vet. I will try my hardest to come up with the money. I DONT want her to die on us she's like my child she is so spoiled and cute. No matter what it takes I will try.

I hope it all works out.

Keep up with the pedialyte for now. Around 20cc every hour (or call the vet and ask what dose she/he recommends for the size of your dog).

The pedialyte is not only important for hydration but for the electrolytes.

Please let us know how it's goes at the vet.

You guys are so helpful

I will thank you

Her name is charlie by the way my 5 year old nephew named her

Good night

If you have other dogs at home they need to be checked for parvo. Also before another dog visits make sure they have been vaccinated against it. They can get it from the soil of where an infected dog has been.
