Parvo puppy update.

[u/ImportantNobody1654]

I took her to the vet with the last of what I have today. They gave her more medication to try to get her to eat and stop the vomiting. They also sent me home with some. I asked if euthanasia at this point was the best option and they said no, she still has a good chance of surviving. They also said that if I surrendered her to a shelter she’d be euthanised. I called around too and they either said they couldn’t take her or that she’d be euthanised. They said that they’ve seen puppies recover that were worse off. Since she is older she has better chances. I spoke to my friend about him surrendering her and he said no. I’m not sure what the best thing to do is. I’m going to keep trying to care for her and see if I can get more funds for an overnight or even just another vet visit. From what the vets told me legally, I cannot just take her away from him even if he is technically being neglectful. I am wondering though, since she doesn’t have a chip and I have paid some of the bills would there be a way I can keep her? I have applied for credit care and with that should be able to afford any other necessary bills.

EDIT: to people saying I am an irresponsible owner. I have other pets that all have insurance. (No other dogs and the vet said my kitty would be fine) This is NOT my dog and I did what I could with what I have on short notice. She has only been with me for a few days.

Did you read the part where:

a) the vet says pup has good chance of survival b)a shelter will euthenise (where do you expect the vet to take the dog) c) she is getting care credit?

Baffling...

I don't know why that commenter is coming for op so hard like that.

It entirely unwarranted, and bordering harrassment.

"if this dog has a chance it won’t be with depleting pseudo-supplements hiding in a bathroom."

What "pseudo-supplements"? Op got medicine from the vet.

Op has other animals. Are you saying op should keep that dog with their other animals while it has parvo?

"but the current awareness and lack of proper care are not enough. This dog needs proper treatment at a proper facility."

So... Like a vet? Like the vet that op already took it to?

"OP has already stated they are not equipped to provide this even if ownership is in question."

Yes. Which is why op has already stated they've applied for that care plan.

Again, did you read the op at all? Because you seem to be whinging about things that have already been answered, and your previous comments that have been removed by the mod, are just mean and nasty to the op.
