Home Parvo treatment for your dog is a realistic option, compared to the usual approach of having your dog treated at the vet’s, even though you may meet considerable resistance to this idea.

 

So, let’s look at a few different factors, so that you can decide for yourself.

 

 

If your dog has Parvo and you have him treated at the animal hospital, it will probably cost you anywhere from $500 USD to over $10,000 USD, and that’s just for a single dog.

 

If you administer Parvo treatment to your dog at home, using products such as Life Cell Immune Support, Doggie Pain Relief, Parvaid and Vibactra Plus, then you will be able to treat at least one dog, and maybe more (depending on their weight) for $275 USD or less, and that includes FedEx Overnight shipping (anything else is nowhere near fast enough, so please don’t be tempted by offers of free shipping on some websites – this free shipping is more often than not US Postal Service Priority Mail, but your dog can be dead by the time your package arrives if you use this type of service).

 

 

Most vets will give dog owners a mere 50:50 chance of their dog surviving Parvo, with the lowest we’ve come across being a one in three chance, and the best an 80% chance.

 

On the other hand, if you treat your Parvo dog at home using all of the products in the Parvo Gold Treatment Kit, then the survival rate is 90%, on average.

 

Part of this increased success rate is because treating your dog at home, yourself, is less stressful for both you and your dog, and less stress equals an improved chance of your dog surviving this horrific virus.

 

Support that’s available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and the unequalled Parvo vPETS service (regular updates by phone every four to five hours or so during the first two days of full treatment – this does include ALL hours of the day, nights, weekends, holidays, etc. since Parvo doesn’t take vacations or mount its attack to suit your schedule) if you can find it, can also increase your dog’s chance of beating Parvo, but you won’t come across many vets offering this.

 

 

If you leave your dog at the vet’s, then it is very likely that nobody will be in attendance over night, so your dog may well be all alone, or with other sick dogs, for 12 hours or more.

 

However, if you carry out the Parvo treatment at home, then you will be there, with him, 24 hours a day.

 

Don’t forget that dogs are very receptive to emotions (or “vibes”, as they’re often known), and being surrounded by people who genuinely care and love for them will help in their recovery.

 

 

If you have the money and you are prepared to accept the relatively low survival rates offered by vets, then you can simply leave your dog there and pick him up again, assuming that he doesn’t die, in one to seven days’ time.

 

If you opt for home Parvo treatment, however, then you do need to be prepared for some nights without sleep, because one of the four products, Parvaid, does need to be administered every single hour (and that does mean both day and night) for the first two days of the four-day course of treatment.

 

 

If you look at the two most important factors when choosing how to treat your Parvo puppy – cost and survival rate – then taking the home Parvo treatment option is clearly better on both counts.

 

The only real downside is the time and effort it will take, but this is a vital part of treating your dog at home, and the rewards, when you see your sick and almost unrecognizable doggie come through this frequently fatal virus, more than compensate for a few days’ sleepless nights.

 

And with the huge number of issues with vaccinations (which is a whole other story), then the best and arguably only way to be prepared is to make sure you have a Parvo Gold Treatment Kit on your shelf at all times – this way, if the worst should happen and Parvo strikes, you’ll be ready to start treatment without delay, even if it’s 2:00am on a Sunday morning, when you’ll probably not find a vet open.
