My dog has parvo and worms. Can I treat both conditions together?

I am sorry to hear that about Kylo. If worms are present in the intestines, they will cause further inflammation and potentially worsen the situation. The doctor was likely trying to eliminate other negative factors. If you have other questions about his treatment, I recommend to discuss your concerns with your veterinarian as they are most familiar with what happened. This can help to set unrest at ease. Also be aware that you now have parvovirus in the environment and any pets who are not fully vaccinated could get infected. Losing a pet is hard. My condolences.

Dogs with parvo will poop blood, but worms are not part of the parvovirus. Now dogs with parvo could have worms at the same time, causing them to poop blood with worms. Koko needs to see a vet immediately if he's pooping blood. Best of luck.

First of all regarding the worms and fleas, a food quality treatment for worms and for fleas will get rid of both within 24 hours, so make sure you use a high quality product. she is too young to get her parvo (and other) shot, you need to wait until she is 8 weeks old. she then will need 2-3 shots 2-4 weeks apart t o complete the vaccination course.

Those puppies are cute! Unfortunately it is possible for both parvovirus and distemper to infect a puppy at the same time. This is especially more likely if they are in a shelter situation where diseases can be more easily spread. Parvo weakens the immune system leaving the puppy prone to other infections so if exposed to distemper the puppy would likely get sick from it. Both diseases (especially parvo) carry a guarded prognosis. They both generally require intensive medical care and if survived the puppy can end up with life long issues related to the infections. I'm sorry to hear these puppies may be effected. My hope is that if caught early they may have a better chance of survival but will likely require a lot of medical care. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach and I'm hoping for a positive outcome for all the puppies!

A dewormer should not interfere with recent vaccination. Ideally, you should check with your veterinarian before medicating Dino. A stool sample submitted for analysis can diagnose intestinal parasites and may aid in more effective treatment.

It's best to wait until Jerry has recovered from the Parvo infection before giving the deworming tablet. If you give it now, she may vomit the medication and it will ultimately be ineffective. Worms often don't cause that many problems, so she would likely be fine to wait a few days while she recovers. However, it's best that you ask your vet doctor there about this. They will know her current condition better and be able to advise better. I hope that helps and Jerry gets better soon.

If Pixie is eating and drinking properly without vomitng and has no more diarrhea then you can worm her about a week after the last diarrhea. I would still wait a few weeks before vaccination as you want a fully recovered immune system in order to get a perfect immune response. So give it 2 weeks or so.
