My dog has parvovirus; foamed at the mouth early Jan 22, diarrhea in the afternoon, tested positive Jan 23, then bloody stool and foam at night. At which stage and what is the survival rate?
Bloody stool places the dog in the middle-to-late stage of parvovirus, with about a 40-50% recovery rate under active treatment; survival depends on immunity, plan, and response. Controlling vomiting and bleeding offers a good chance, with transfusions for severe anemia.
