I had Lucy for three days before she nearly died

She had parvovirus and it was all in all over $4000 to save her. I was in college at the the time and obviously had no money haha.

My friends put it on their credit cards 😳

And we started a fundraiser at school.

I paid my friends back but mostly with the help of my dad

But holy shit she would be dead without it. Not because of me, but because of other people. It's amazing

She spent a week at the vet with round the clock care. I could barely even go to see her, but when I did she had to wrapped in a towel because she would poo herself and she was on IV and machines to monitor her health

Poor thing. I think it really messed her up and I failed her because I did not see her more

I've lost a dog to it & I've saved a dog with it. It's a difficult disease. I had to be with her at all times & I couldn't afford a vet so I did it all myself.

Shit takes work but as long as they're taken care of, they have a good chance. I'm glad Lucy had that 🙏 she's a tough one

@ChiefJustWalks I guess it's mostly about keeping them hydrated... But they need nutrients too I imagine.

I'm glad you were able to save one 💙

@caccoon yeah that's the main thing because they won't do it in their own. I could've saved the first one too if I knew but I wasn't home for weeks at that time. I had someone else watching her. But thanks 🖤 can't blame yourself. I'm glad your dog made it too 😌

My pup is a parvo survivor. Her whole litter almost died as young pups in foster afrer they were pulled off the rez. Its a tough disease. She had some anxiety issues for sure.

I'm glad you were able to save your Lucy!

@Starcrossed it is. So contagious. I often wonder if her siblings made it...

I'm glad your pup made it too!!
