What happens after a dog survived parvo?
Once an animal has recovered from the parvovirus it is not likely they will get it again. Immunity to the disease after infection lasts for several years. Most dogs that recover from the disease have no lasting long term problems as a result of their illness.
Do dogs fully recover from parvo?
Parvo is a potentially fatal disease. The survival rate of dogs treated by a veterinarian is 68 to 92 percent, and most puppies that survive the first three-to-four days make a complete recovery.
Can a dog live a normal life after parvo?
Unfortunately parvovirus infection can be fatal, despite all intervention. When they do recover, most dogs are able to go back to a completely normal life. After discharge from the hospital they may continue to shed the virus for 3-4 weeks.
Does parvo last forever in dogs?
There is no cure for parvovirus. Instead, intensive treatment is required to assist the body in fight off the disease. This treatment will vary depending on the severity of symptoms. However, in nearly all cases, it will require intensive hospital care for up to a week.
