Getting a Dog After Parvo?

My daughter lived with 2 years ago. Her dog somehow got parvo, and survived and lived in my house for those years. He hasn't lived with me for a year now, but still comes over. He doen't go to the bathroom in my house, but outside, yes. Well, I'm getting a new puppy, what should I do? Is my daughter's dog still contagious after all this time?

I rescued some puppies that had Parvo, from my experience and what a Vet told me, your house and yard can be dangerous for up to 2-3 years after. House can be bleached to help keep next animal safe. As for yard- make sure puppy get his/her shots before going outside or train them in another part of the yard where the other dog with parvo wasn't at.

By the way, a dog that got over Parvo, will not get it again, and if totally over it, cannot spread Parvo.

This info is imcorrect. Even if a dog beats parvo they still carry the virus in their stool for up to 6 to 8 months. Please research your in for before giving someone deadly incorrect info.

Don't know if I got this to you or not, but here goes again.
After rescuing some puppies with Parvo, what I learned and what a Vet told me. That as long as your house is well bleached your house will be fine. Please bleach your house even though the dog didn't mess in your house. Think of a cough and how it spreads when cleaning areas where her dog was.

As for your yard, it is NOT safe for a puppy with no shots to be in that yard. The yard will be a danger for 2-3 yrs for a dog with no or just 2 shots. Must have 3rd shot to be safe. If getting a puppy use another part of the yard where the other dog that had Parvo didn't use. Once a dog is over Parvo, they cannot get it back, and can't spread it.

I lost my 11 week old Boston Terrier puppy July 5, 2017 to parvo that she got from our vet's office. She went in to have surgery on her cherry eye and came in contact with it while there. I miss her so much and want to get another one but just so scared to bring another one home even though I have bleached everything and threw away everything that she had.

Do you think it would be safe to bring another one in our home now or should I look at getting an older puppy?
