Over the weekend, my parents took our three month old dog to our cabin.she started throwing up and vomitting all weekend. Today, when they came home she didnt move or eat. we thought she had eaten something that sheshouldnt have. We decided we would take her in, next morning. As i was holding her, she started bleeding from her behind and we immediately took her to the vet hospital. When we got there, we got the worst news parvo. It was sad to digest, as she doesnt leave the yard and has all of her shots. The vet said our chances range from 25-50% survival and that we got lucky. The vet wanted to keep the pup up to three days on an IV but the deposit was $500 and the overnight fees ranged from $1000-2000 dollars. Something we wish we could do but cant afford. So option two, was to nurse her ourselves and were given 5 meds. they hooked her to meds on an iv that she said would leave a temp. camels hump but we have to bring her in everyday. What are her chances of survival? she is walking
