What should you be feeding a dog with parvo?

Answer by  mammakat (11147)

Don't believe articles that say you can treat parvo dietarily with raw eggs, gatorade, etc. Get treatment. Parvo is fatal and HIGHLY infectious. Trying to treat this at home is cruel and negligent and you are condemning your dog to a miserable death. If you can't afford treatment, relinquish your dog to the shelter and hope you're not too late.

First, if your dog has parvo you should take him to a vet immediatly. It is very contagious and can cause death. Usually they don't feel like eating much when they have parvo so some soft canned food would probably be best.

The dog should only be give ice chips until vomiting stops. Once they are able to eat, bland foods like white rice and hard boiled eggs are best to start.

Whatever it will eat. Usually canned food or boiled chicken and rice. You need to make sure the dog is getting plenty of fluids and isn't dehydrated, and it also needs to be on antibiotics.

Try feeding it a bland diet, there are some prescription dog food you can purchase for that purpose. Some people try boiled chicken and rice. When you are ready to switch it back over to it's normal diet, make sure you mix in a little bit of the bland food with the regular food for 2 to 3 days.
