    • It's defiantly a possibility. You should call and check with a vet though to be sure. And on a side note, if the dog had parvo chances are it wasn't vaccinated for it and that seems very fishy to me. I would look into another breeder.

    • The 8itch had Parvo when she was 8 weeks old? Then no, Parvo does not alter a dog's DNA. If the 8itch had Parvo when she was pregnant, then the pups could have been deprived of nutrients at key points in fetal development. If this is a breeder you are looking at using, make damn sure the breeder shows/works his dogs and health tests appropriately. http://www.pbrc.net/breeding3.html
