I have a two month old Bulldog puppy and we've been battling parvo for about 4 days. Now he's to the point where he's pooping blood and vomiting blood. I've been keeping him plenty hyrdrated and use Pepto for upset stomach. He hasn't had his 9 & 1 shot yet. Can I give it to him while he has parvo? Please help. I don't wanna loose him. We are on day four and still no eating or drinking.

This is a serious illness. Most puppies die within 72 hours. I don't know why you have not contacted a vet yet. A vet should be contacted at the first sign of this disease. If your dog is vomiting and defecating blood, I would contact a vet immediately. I hope your dog recovers.
This vaccine can cause reactions. I don't think you should give a vaccine to a sick dog. I know doctors don't give humans vaccines when they are ill.
It is very sad to hear about your baby but hopefully he is doing better.
I do not believe you should give a vaccination of any kind until your puppy is much, much better and the vet agrees that he should have one.
Since Parvo is such a serious disease I would advise you to take him to the vet if at all possible. The services will be very expensive but it may be the only way to save your puppy.
If taking your puppy to the vet is not an option than maybe you can gleam some useful information from one of these sites:
I agree. Our dog a long time ago had parvo and he survived, but only after taking massive doses of medication and different sorts of antibiotics.
BUt as said in other comments, resources exist for taking care of a dog with this condition, such as this one naturalhealthtechniques.com/
here's a site with advice for home remedies for parvo: beingstray.com/
"The biggest needs in parvo treatment are fluid and electrolyte replacement so the dog stays hydrated, and medication to control diarrhea and vomiting. Diarrhea and vomiting can quickly dehydrate a dog. ."
so in essence if you can control these problems, he should heal, but remember that even if after consulting a vet, 1/2 the infected dogs do die.
