Lola is on the mend!

Finally, after 5 days, Lola has made a 180 degree turn around, and is on the way to recovery! Parvo is a mother fucker of a disease and she had a 50/50 chance of making it. I've read that 70% of the dogs that contract the illness die.













Monday after I posted here, I contacted a place called Wolf Creek Lodge. They have treated 46 out of 47 parvo puppies successfully with two products, Parvaid which is used in conjunction with Vibactra, both herbal remedies.

The conventional meds she had been taking, sub q fluids and antibiotics, weren't doing anything. She was still throwing up about 4xs an hour and I was desperate.

I had them overnight the remedies. In the meantime, they gave me an "emergency tea" recipe to give to her as an enema once an hour. I sped off to the grocery store for the items and came home and made a batch. It consisted of mint medley and chamomile tea, pedialite, garlic cloves, vitamin c, and echinacea.

After 17 hours of hourly enema's of the tea, she peed for the first time in 36 hours and wagged her tail, and jumped on the bed by herself.

Once the UPS package arrived yesterday, she started on oral doses mixed with the pedialite every 15 minutes. This was administered until 4am this morning, and she held it down with out throwing up. This morning she jumped off the bed to go outside to potty, and Dominic stayed home with her while I worked at the coffee shop. At noon, he called to tell me she wanted food.

WOOOOOOO!!!

When I got home, she was waiting for me in the livingroom, tail wagging and jumping around, playing with a stuffie. I couldn't believe it. I really think she's going to pull through, and it's a freaking miracle, really.
