Parvo Emergency Tea – What It Is … And What It Is Not
The Canine Parvovirus often attacks at the worst possible time (not that there’s ever a good time for your dog to be attacked by the Parvo virus, of course) – you might find that it is 3:00am on a Sunday morning, and the vet’s clinic is not open.
In which case, what options do you have?
You may currently be aware that puppies suffering from Parvo can dehydrate rapidly, and that’s why veterinarians will probably hook them up to an IV drip, but of course IV drips are not something you’ll be able to just locate at Walmart.
And when you do not know about the perils associated with lack of fluids, a fast research session on the web will soon give you the information you’re looking for.
The good thing is that there’s a hydration therapy you can do at home, which is, in most cases, at least as useful as IV fluids and even SubQ fluids …
… and it’s known as the Parvo Emergency Tea Recipe.
What is it?
It is something you can make at home, utilizing products you may find at most respectable grocery stores and/or pharmacies, and it’s intended to do a few assorted jobs.
To begin with, it’s a natural electrolyte liquid that will help prevent your sick doggy from getting dehydrated. (We understand that people, among them veterinarians, may very well suggest using Pedialyte or Gatorade for this purpose, yet unfortunately our own experience shows that these two products can cause further vomiting, which is the last thing you will want if your dog is suffering from the Parvo virus.)
Second, it may well actually help to minimise any throwing up – without any chemical-based medicines which might induce, of course, further health problems.
Thirdly, some of the herbs in the Parvo Emergency Tea should help give a boost to your puppy’s immune system, which will certainly be under major attack from the Parvovirus.
Now, there are several points you must know about the emergency tea, the most important of which is that you have to give it each and every hour, and this really does include both day and night, until you are able to commence full treatment for the Parvo.
In reality, you’re effectively behaving just like a human IV drip, and one of the most important factors in treating the Canine Parvo virus is almost always to give limited amounts of liquid regularly – because dehydration is not the only danger with this virus – overhydration is as well.
However , a lot more important than that, you must realise that the Parvo Emergency Tea is NOT designed to take care of the Canine Parvo virus – while it does indeed try to mimic the Parvaid product using easily-obtained ingredients, it is not even close to being potent enough to treat your suffering doggie.
You must consequently NOT count on this tea recipe to get your sick pup better once more – it is made to buy you some time and sustain him until you can get suitable treatment started (and we do, naturally, recommend the Parvo Treatment Kit).
While it is true that a very small quantity of pets do appear to survive by using nothing more than the Parvo Tea (combined with a great deal of TLC), we’ve established this happens in roughly 0.1% of cases – which happens to be about one doggy out of every 1,000!
Are you willing to gamble that your pet dog could possibly be the single fortunate pup in a 1,000?
We certainly wouldn’t – our dogs really are far too important to us.
Accordingly, though we would invariably encourage you to make and then administer the Parvo Emergency Tea the instant you notice any of the traditional Parvo virus symptoms (i.e. not eating, not drinking, not playing / being lethargic, dehydration, depression, vomiting, diarrhea or bloody diarrhea, fever or chills), please, for the health of your doggy, be sure you get him treated at once!
We had one customer who had a puppy that died only five hours after the very first onslaught of diarrhea, which just goes to show how aggressive the Parvo Virus has become. This really is so quick that you scarcely have time to respond, and that is one of the reasons why we strongly encourage every dog owner to keep a Home Parvo Treatment Kit on hand all the time – just in case.
