My aunts puppy came down with parvo tonight. Well the signs started. And she was over here today before she knew. I have a dog and he will be 3 years old in march. I had given him a one in eight shot almost a week ago. Which covered parvovirus. But I am still scared to death. This dog means the world to me and I don't know what I would do without him. He is a very healthy dog. He is a black chiwahah full blooded. I know it is harder for an adult dog to get it than a puppy. But I am still scared. I would really be grateful to anyone that could tell me if I need to worry and what I can do to be sure I don't lose him. These kind of dogs are prone to sickness anyway. But like I said he is very healthy and If anone could help me I would greatly do what ever I had to do to make sure my baby will be OK. Thanks so much

I am afraid it hasn't been long enough since that shot for it to do any good. If he had a shot a year ago too, he may still be immune from it. For more on parvo, see Canine Parvovirus, What you should know about
