Am a first time owner of Dog, someone gave me this cute Samoyed for free since December last year, been taking care of him... he was vaccinated in February, next vaccination date was supposed to be March 16th, but up till now, could not vaccinate him due to some reasons.....

Three days ago now, I noticed the dog was not eating and had this watery faeces with mucous, managed to call the Vet doctor, he came around checked him and said he suspected Parvo virus, he gave him some drips and some other injection.. Now he said we need to start the treatment afresh to combat the virus, now I don't even have means of doing that now, just watching the dog lying down helplessly at home dying slowly....

Any alternative remedy?

Jack lying down weak... He just vomited the food I gave him... No appetite self

Jack, two weeks ago full of life

Did first time you vaccinated the Dog, did they give it Distemperment shots or not? Because that is the first and most important shots that should be give to a Dog.

If Distemperment shots was give then he can not really contact parvo Virus, because it Lasts for life despite what People say, so if you have already give him Distemperment shots then this illness he is facing is not really parvo Virus, but somthing else, unless if he was not given Distemperment shots.

Yes, he was given distemper shot, but the doctor says he needs to take it atleast three times to complete the vaccination


This is what was written in the card...

Whatever you doing, never cut corners if you don't want to mourn that beautiful creature. Just assume someone close to you is sick and in need of urgent treatment. Rally round immediately and get that money for that dog's treatment. The more you wait the higher the bills cause its health is deteriorating.

RIP to my Spike

No wonder, you made a Big mistake by NOt completing the shots, its the most important.

Please, can you tell me the name of the drug you used?

Don't take dog if you aren't financially okay. Everybody wants to join the dog crew but can't do their all to keep them. You will need to work your ass out to make your dog comfortable cos you will need to treat them like your own child.

That dog is too beautiful to die. Pls look for possible solutions asap.

Our local nigerian dogs have Very strong immune systems, their immune System can fight diseases faster than all those foreign dogs

How is the dog?

Should be dead as usual

I guess the OP was hoping a good Samaritan/nairalander would send money to him to treat the poor dog.

Alas, his format failed woefully

Though he was later treated that same yesterday morning, but I guess it was too late. he could not survive.

That's quite harsh, he never asked anyone for money, the least you could do is sympathize with him on his loss, or simply keep it moving to the next thread if you have nothing to contribute.. pathetic..
