How do i get rid of parvo?

As long as the puppy has been vaccinated against parvo before you bring him/her home (meaning they're over 12 weeks old), then you don't have to worry about it, because they won't get it. But they have to have had all three sets of puppy shots beforehand. I had the same problem with one of my dogs. :)

You should be fine. After I fostered a parvo pup, I was told to wait 6 mos before taking in another puppy. So since it has been a year, there should be no problems. 1:10 solution of bleach to water is the only thing that is known to kill parvo. So, if you are worried, you could spray the solution on your yard. or just a small area of the yard, where you can keep him until he's fully vaccinated. If you still have a kennel or crate the other puppy used, wash it out with bleach and rinse real well. But, all in all, I'd say you have a green light to go for a new pup.

I take Parvo in constantly. I nurse them back to health. My adult dogs have never gotten from a puppy. I always wait at least six months before bringing a new litter in or taking on a new puppy. I also bleach everything, even the yard. 1/10 solution will kill parvo and you can clean the entire house with clorox clean up. You should be okay after a year. The best thing for you to do is to find a puppy that has survived and ready for a new family. My rescue takes them on all the time. Several of us have gotten very attached to our parvo survivors. I kept my first and he is my big butt head and the sweetest of my five. I have the most adorable white lab mix I am fostering now that his brothers died at the vet but he survived and has been staying with me till he could get his strength back. Check your local rescues. I rescued one from a vet that once it had broke with Parvo the owners didn't want to even try to save it.

Other wise I would wait till you can get a puppy that has had all its shots. It is actually more likely a new puppy will contract Parvo from a vets office or public pet area than at your house. Be sure to get the puppy its booster shots every three weeks. I am not for over vaccinating adult dogs but puppies do need that booster every three weeks because it has never been determined when the mothers antibodies are out of a puppies body and the first shot may not take due to her antibodies killing the virus injected.

It has not been determied how long the virus can actually survive but I do it every six months. Watch the puppy fecal and vomiting and lethargy are things to really watch for. My first broke I couldn't get him to eat a hamburger. If a puppy won;t eat a hamburger something is wrong. He is five and I have never had another break at my house. I take them in after they break the white lab I have now is actually another rescues but they had never dealt with it and many people are very scared of Parvo and the carona virus

Parvo is actually easily caught, and although it does kill quite a number of dogs, catching it early may mean saving your dogs life. There is no way to prevent parvo from being in or near your land. Ways to keep it from claiming another life is to check your puppies fecal matter. Yes, this sounds disgusting, but if you notice your puppy has diarrhea or is vomiting, you need to take it in your home and keep it away from other dogs. The parvo isn't the killer, it just acts as a catalyst. The animal dies of starvation and dehydration. So you want to keep forcing the puppy to drink lots of water and eat high protien wet dog food. Also, get your dog vaccinated as soon as possible. Parvo generally affects the older dogs and puppies, but healthy adult dogs are less likely to catch it. That could be why it didn't hurt your other dogs before. Also, an interesting tid bit is that cats are immune to Parvo, they won't catch it. Good luck!

Before you bring the new puppy home take it to a vet and get it the parvo vacination. Also talk to the vet & ask how long it can live if your other dog had it & you are worried that it could still be in the ground. You might also want to think about getting your other 2 dogs vacinated for it as well!

You really can't be sure of that. Parvo lasts for years in the ground. The house and other objects can be disinfected with bleach solution, or check with your vet for other ideas. Maybe you can keep the house safe enough for the puppy until you can get it vaccinated; or just make sure it is vaccinated for parvo at least once before you take it home.

If it was a year ago, chances are, it's gone. You need to make sure the puppy gets it's vaccination from it before it comes there to be double safe. Also, a solution of 90% water, and 10% water will kill the virus. Your best bet it to get it vaccinated before it comes home.

Parvo is not something you cure. You can vaccinate your animals. You cannot do anythig to the ground.

Once they get it, you cant get rid of it.

Call a vet and ask how long the virus lives on the ground.

i had the same thing happen to me-then my other dog got it-you'll probably have to ask a vet on how not to pass it on again-i didnt get another dog after that
