Expert Answer

With active treatment, a Teddy’s ‘turned intestines’ (parvovirus) usually recovers in 7-14 days. Medically this is a viral acute hemorrhagic gastroenteritis; under treatment dogs recover in 1-2 weeks, with the time depending on the plan and the dog’s constitution. It is especially dangerous to puppies, so if parvo is suspected, go to the vet promptly to avoid missing the best treatment window.
