Parvo Treatment At Home – The Advantages And Disadvantages

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

 

If you’re not convinced, then here are a few facts to consider to help you make up your mind.

 

 

If you have your Parvo dog 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.

 

On the other hand, if you treat your dog at home, using products such as Doggie Pain Relief, Parvaid, Vibactra Plus and Life Cell Immune Support, then you can treat one or more dogs (depending on their weight) for $275 USD or less, and that includes FedEx Overnight shipping (anything else is just too slow, so please don’t be tempted by offers of free shipping by some vendors – this free shipping is usually 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 animal hospitals offer dog owners a 50:50 chance of their dog successfully overcoming the Parvo virus, with the lowest we’ve heard being a one in three chance, and the best an 80% chance.

 

On the other hand, if you treat your Parvo puppy at home using all of the products in the Parvo Gold Treatment Kit, then the success rate is typically 90%.

 

This is partly because treating your dog at home, yourself, is much less stressful for both your dog and you, and less stress equals an improved chance of your dog surviving this dreadful virus.

 

Support that’s available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and the unique Parvo vPETS service (constant updates by phone every 4-5 hours during the first two days of full treatment – this does include hourly treatment, throughout the night as well, since Parvo doesn’t take vacations or mount its attack to suit your schedule) if you can find anybody offering it, can also increase your dog’s chance of overcoming Parvo, but you certainly won’t get this from most vets.

 

 

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

 

However, with home Parvo treatment, then you will be there, with your dog, all day long.

 

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

 

 

If you have enough disposable income and you accept the relatively low survival rates offered by vets, then you can simply leave your dog there and collect him again, if he doesn’t die, in one to seven days’ time.

 

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

 

 

There are many good reasons why it makes sense to treat your dog at home if he has Parvo – the lower cost and increased survival rate are the two most obvious ones.

 

The only real downside is the time and effort it will take, but this is a vital part of home Parvo treatment, and the rewards, when you see your sick and almost unrecognizable doggie survive this often 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 have a Parvo Gold Treatment Kit in stock at all times – this way, if your dog should be infected by the Parvo virus, you’ll be ready to begin treatment without delay, even if it’s 5:00am on a Sunday morning, when you’ll almost certainly struggle to find an animal hospital open.
