Parvaid Parvovirus Prophylactic Use:
Parvaid can be used prophylactically to prevent parvovirus. Dose with just the oral drops of Parvaid per the chart above, to puppies who have been exposed to the parvo virus. Dose orally 4x/day for 5 days to ALL puppies who have been exposed to the parvo virus and are not currently exhibiting any symptoms of parvo to help prevent them from coming down with parvo. Dosed prophylactically as soon as you know your puppy has been exposed to the parvovirus helps prevent majority of exposed puppies from exhibiting any parvo virus symptoms. If a puppy starts to exhibit symptoms of parvo, then begin immediate treatment per the information above.
If your canine has the F-Strain Parvo Virus or if you are giving it Parvaid™ and it seems to get better then has a relapse, take immediate action
Do Not Delay.To treat the F-Strain Parvo Virus you must first recognize the symptoms. They are:
Stools have a gelatin-like appearance with little or no blood.
Vomiting is frothy bile.
There are massive amounts of fluid loss. Getting thinner in a short period of time.
Your animal is lethargic.
Testing positive for Parvo.
This strain is more deadly than the other type of Parvo and needs to be treated more aggressively. From the time symptoms appear to the time of death can be as little as six hours. Fluids and electrolytes must be given to offset what the dog is losing.
If you suspect your dog has the F-Strain and you would like to use our treatment plan you must do the following steps.
Get a test from the veterinarian to be sure it is Parvo.
Have the vet give your dog a penicillin shot. Best yet, we suggest using Vibactra Plus, a natural antibiotic alternative that is known to kill viruses and bacteria.
Give the dog Parvaid™ according to instructions until the dog wants to eat.
If the dog has a relapse after eating food you must stop feeding it and give it an enema following these steps.
For a puppy or small dog use a syringe. For a medium to large dog use an infant enema bottle. Lube the tip with KY jelly or Vaseline.
Fill the syringe/bottle with Pedialyte and Parvaid™ drops according to weight. (see chart below)
Place the dog in the tub and administer the solution slowly.
Hold the buttocks together for at least two minutes.
Release the buttocks and let the water out.

There may or may not be much water released from the dog. The colon may absorb all of it so don't worry if it does. You may have to repeat this in another two hours if there is not much improvement.
As with any gastro-intestinal disease first foods should be bland and easy to digest. We suggest you start with bullion first then go to baby food, such as rice and lamb or rice and beef. Cooked chicken and rice, small amounts of raw liver are excellent. If you can get your vet to prescribe Hills Farm prescription diet especially for dogs with intestinal illnesses, do it.
Although there is no guarantee that your dog will survive, if you follow these steps it will have a better chance.
