6 months ago I brought home a puppy that tested positive for coccidia, ghiardia, and parvo within 2 days of having him. He died by the end of the week. My 8 year old dog never got sick and we did clean the whole house with the same product our vet uses for parvo cleanup. I am now considering getting a new pup who the breeder will keep until it has had its second parvo vaccine. Will that be enough?

6 months is enough time for the inside. Parvo can live for a year outdoors, so be careful to avoid areas the first dog went on.
Your new puppy may be safe if it has completed the round of vaccinations, but, to be safe, i would suggest having a consultation with your vet and not just the breeder.
We just lost a puppy today. She was an Old English Bulldoggie. Last Thursday night she was happy running around Friday morning she was sick. Took her to the Vet had them put her on IV's and do what they needed to. Picked her up on Saturday, they told me I could help her through it doing the same stuff they do at home. She died bleeding and screaming in pain on Tuesday night. They knew there was no chance. But want my money. Do Not bring a New puppy home until all shots are done. Give your last shot 2 or 3 weeks before taking home. They need to build the antibody up before they can be around.
