My dog Penny has been suffering from the parvovirus for almost 3 days. We have taken her to the vet and they said she's gonna be fine, but by looking at her I don't think she's fine enough by getting treatment too. She's not eating anything; what shall I do? For keeping her hydrated what shall I do?

Basically, there is not much you can do until the dog starts to feel a bit better. I know it is hard and it really hurts to see your dog laying there and not eating. Normally after the dog is treated it can take up to 5 or 6 days for the dog to eat again. You can try feeding the dog a small amount of cooked pasta with some boiled chicken cut up really small. You can use some of the chicken broth in the mixture to give it a bit more flavor. Until the dog is feeling better they just won't eat. I had to deal with this with one of my dogs and I was so worried about the dog. It took him 5 days before he would eat again.
I would give her a solution with electrolytes in it. Call the vet for a recommendation. I would not worry about eating at this point.
Our dog, Sadee, had Parvo and we found she had a beef allergy after that, so we fed her only chicken dog foods. You might want to get a second opinion.
