    Hey, thanks for your replies--but I thought I should tell you what happened today. I went ahead and my mom & I carried her to the Vet. We had to call the Vet. from home and told her what was happening and she told us to come on and bring her that she'll see if it is parvo.

    We got there and she tested her and said she knew it was a virus but didn't think it was pravo, so I'm hoping that the med. she gave us to give her will clear everything up soon. She hasn't eaten anything since she's been here though so that concerns us.

    She hasn't had blood in her stool anymore...yesterday was the only time so that's good.

    I think she must have been kept outside because the man we got her from also had chickens, goats & ducks for sale so she must have been a farm dog and he said they kept them outside...so maybe he didn't know she was sick? But we did get her some medicine and right now she's sleeping. We've been giving her gatorade and she'l drink it on her own so I'll let you all know how she is later. Please say a prayer for her--We named her Sadie.. Thankyou,
    Genny

    Stop the Gatorade right away, it will make the problem worse. It is mostly sugar which upsets the balance of instestinal flora, feeding bad bacteria and causing it to spread which will only make her more sick.
    I've been BOO'd!

    Yeah, definitely don't give gatorade to a dog!!!

    You can give the regular Pedialyte if a dog is really dehydrated - but gatorade is just bad for them, way too much sugar.
