Here's my question, my dogs are both vaccinated against Parvo, but it still scares me. I know the virus can live outside a dog for months and is extremely contagious. Dogs that are tested positive are typically given a 50/50 chance of survival based on how quickly they are treated with fluids to help prevent dehydration.

Is there anything more than bleaching the entire walkway and the bottom of my shoes that I can do? I'll take the dogs out the back way for a while, but am worried that the Chihuahua might have gone to the bathroom on the lawn, or anywhere around the house.
Your dogs should be fine but if you are worried, get a yard sprayer and use per the amount of the container- half bleach half water and spray the yard. Advise anyone with puppies to not come over for a while unless they have all their shots.
Keep us posted..
