If you don’t have thousands of dollars lying around to treat your parvo puppies, don’t worry. There are simple, inexpensive steps you can take at home to treat parvo puppies using Parvaid.

Using an IV can make dosing easier, but you should still administer oral drops every hour until the puppy is eating and drinking on his own. Unfortunately, many people think they can mix the Parvaid in the puppy’s water, but if the puppy isn’t drinking fluids on his own, he won’t be getting the medication.
