Well she is turning around, organ test came back positive. She is walking around now at the vet. She is not out of the woods to speak, but doing better.

It sounds like she is recovering. That's great. I went through the same thing with a German Shepard pup many years ago. At the time I couldn't afford the vet so I had to do it all myself (a horse syringe and gatorade is what I remember the most). I swore the next time I would let the vet do it. The smell was nearly unbearable.
Wanted: to set up a tank again.

One of my husbands co-workers recently lost his German Shepherd puppy to parvo. It's so sad to lose a pet. Even though they're animals they are still part of the family. I know my 2 shepherds are. My female went into heat yesterday....OH JOY! :roll:

Yes we are planning on breeding them but not until she is 2 years old. She is 1 year and 3 months now. So by this time next year we hope to have some puppies. I can't wait!!! We have a lot of people already wanting a puppy from us. People ask us all the time when we are going to breed them. We want to get their hips checked and OFA certified.

She looked pitiful today. She is really thin and her hair is shedding terribly, but they seem to think she is getting better.

Get her better on the inside and the outside will follow. :D

Here's hoping she's even better tomorrow. I think if she makes it thru this she's gonna have to get the "lil trooper" award. :lol:

He said she is eating now, drinking and looking better. If he does not call then we pick her up after 4pm.

What brand of food are you feeding her? Feed her Nutro to help her coat get back to normal. I've seen several success stories with Nutro. Both of my dogs coats got so shiny when I started feeding them Nutro. I got my mom to start feeding her Rat Terrier Nutro. He used to have very itchy skin and a very dull coat. His coat is so shiny now and he no longer itches since switching his food. I'm a big believer in Nutro!

Check out www.nutroproducts.com for more details and success stories.
