You need to get this puppy to a VET ASAP. Bring the puppy to a Rescue Organization - they all work with Vets who give them discounted rates. There is no such thing as a free puppy. It is costly to own an animal and you have to think of the puppy first - give him up to a rescue if you cannot afford to keep him. Owning a dog takes much more than providing food and shelter. Vet visits are necessary, and if a person cannot afford to take their dog or cat to a vet, you have to give her up. I don't mean to sound harsh, but its a must, you have to save this puppies life and do whats right. Please take her to a rescue so that they can save her life.

My dog nearly died of Parvo when she was much younger. Her life was in the balance. Fortunately because she received the emergency care (and she went 2 days without it because we didn't know what was wrong with her!)....she made it through. She took  about 2 weeks to get her strength back, and about a month before she was 'fighting fit' again.
Yet she has been a good strong dog since. It has not done her any lasting damage. The only thing I have to watch is she has a slightly sensitive stomach now. If she gets hold of ANYTHING even the smallest amount -of something she really shouldn't eat....she gets an upset tummy. On her normal food, good healthy food, she is fine and very healthy.

I do hope your little pup makes it. My thoughts are with you. I know what a nasty bug Parvo is.

You really need to get your baby seen by a vet.Parvo attacks the stomache lining and is a very painful illness.You need to keep as many fluids in him as possible.Parvo causes diarrahea and vomiting.and they become dehydrated very fast.Get some Gatorade and keep him drinking alot.You need to see if your vet will let you make payments.They have ways of helping you with the payments.Are his gums real pale?How do you know for sure that he has Parvo?PLEASE let us know how he is doing.May God Bless You and your baby.I will be praying for ya'll

PLEASE take your puppy to the vet. This is serious and very very urgent. This is an emergency. I don't know how you will manage it financially. Could you ask a family member or friend to lend you the vet fee? try ANYTHING!

Your puppy is in great danger of dying. Parvo is fast, deadly, and there is no home remedy for this. As it is, it is still a possibility your pup won't make it, but with emergency care, there is still a chance. Take him to either a vet or an ER vet, or something, right now.
