I had to take my baby to the vet today and she has Parvo. They are giving her Iv fluids and antibiotics. I have to call tommorrow and see if she better so she can come home or not.
Damn I miss the little furball so much. She usually sits in my lap while I'm online. The Doc says she has an 85-90% chance of full reocvery. Due to her age, it can't do as much damage as if she was younger.
The thing that really pisses me off is that the person I got her from said she had been given all her shots except for rabies, and the vet says she couldn't have gotten this if that were true. I feel so bad I believed that person, and now my babies life is at stake.
So has anyone else had a furbaby that has had it and survived? From what the vet says this is way more serious in canines that AIDS in a human. (That just made me feel SOO much better. *sarcasm*)
God, I just want her back so damn bad, I tried to cuddle with the cat, but she's being her normal antisocial self. (The cat is hubby's baby, and the dog is mine.) I even tried to get hubby to sit in my lap, but he's too heavy.
I called my bartender tonight and told him I couldn't work due to this, and he thinks I'm crazy,lol. He's like yeah, ok whatever. I said ok, I'll bring in the paperwork when I comeback to work. He's like really? Ok then, see you this weekend.
Anyway, I hope she's ok, and I'll repost later on her condition.

I had a scare when I bought one of my little girls. After I brought her home she was puking and I rushed her to the Vet. After I said which pet store I bought her at he said "oh oh, it might be Parvo".....the store had a bad reputation for selling not so heathly doggies. Luckily she didn't but it was a horrible scare. And yes, it's so serious, but caught early chances are good. Now my little furry girl is almost 5 years old and doing great!
