I have 5 month old Boxer. He caught parvo and has been with the vet for 2 days. He was released back to us this morning cause his fever dropped and his temp was back to normal. He is holding down his Pedialyte well. The vet said to keep him hydrated and give him his medications, but now that he is recovering is it normal for him to still be weak and tired? He also cries when he is laying down. I'm not sure if it's cause he's in pain or wants attention. He starting to wag his tail again, is this an indication that he is feeling better?

Parvo can take a few weeks to recover from. The symptoms of weak and tired are to be expected.
Parvo has a slow recovery. At least a couple of weeks where your dog will not have his normal energy level. He will need extra attention to keep his spirits up while he recovers.
