    • No, if the dog is already sick a vaccine will not work. Basically a vaccine is the dead version of the virus and is only used for prevention.Take your pup to a vet and see what is wrong with her.

    • You don't vaccinate a sick dog. If she is acting like she is sick, you will just make things worse. A parvo shot won't stop a dog from getting sicker, and it won't make a dog better if it has already picked up parvo. You should go to the vet if you are worried about the dog.

    • The shot is really a preventative measure, like the flu shot for humans. Parvo doesn't usually strike adult dogs, and she may not really have parvo but something else.You really should take her to the vet to determine what is wrong with her.
