pboae Posted October 9, 2007 Report Share Posted October 9, 2007 On another (non doggy) forum, someone has recently rehomed a pup from a pound, and within days she was seriously ill. The vet has confirmed Parvo, and the pup is still fighting, but is very ill. She was innoculated the day after she came home, but presumably she was already infected then as she became symptomatic the next day. The dog warden and the pound have been pretty unpleasant about it (the dog warden told her that Pavovirus doesn't really exist anymore!). I said I would ask around and see if anyone knew anything about the pounds in the area, She is also very worried about the vet costs, does anyone know of any agencies or charities who might help with that? I just feel so sorry for her. She is beside herself with worry about the pup, and is concerned that other dogs are going to catch it too, but if the pound won't listen, what else can she do?
