    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.
