I followed the Activated Charcoal remedy religiously, word for word, and it was a miracle!
The only thing I regret was waiting for a Veterinary Diagnosis before starting the Charcoal Treatment.
Out of 5 puppies, Princepessa (our only female), was the first to start showing symptoms. I took her to an emergency Vet on a Sunday afternoon, and when the Vet suggested keeping her overnight on an IV until the results were in the next morning, I assumed that Princepessa would be safer, and better off, with the profesional help she'd be getting there.
***NOTE: As we were discussing the possibility of an overninght stay, Princepessa suddenly leaned into me -- as if she understood what we were talking about, but was indicating that she referred to go home with me -- and she was right! I should have paid more attention to, and respected, the animal's wishes!
The next day, when the positive Parvo results were in, we returned for Princepessa, only to discover that she was so much worse off! What the vet forgot to mention, was that the IV fluid was the ONLY thing Princepessa would be getting, for the entire time we left here there! In other words, I'd just lost nearly 24-hours of time that I could have been administering Activated Charcoal (and in fact, was already doing so with the other 4 puppies at home).
As soon as I held Princepessa, I knew that I'd most likely now be fighting a (losing) battle for her life -- as her entire body, and even her breathing, now had that distinct Parvo smell, which I'll never forget and will forever haunt me!
I rushed Princepessa home, frantically doing everything I could -- but it was too late -- so we lost our only little girl-Pup the very next afternoon :(......
For the next week, it was touch-and-go with Princepessa's 4 brothers, but eventually they all pulled throught, thanks to the Activated Charcoal remedy.
I also gave the Puppies Oregano Essential Oil (dilluted in Water) when they were at their sickest; and I added 1/3 Teaspoon of Baking Soda to their food, several times, once they started eating again.
For anyone who might be reading this: There is Hope! Just don't waste time on the Vets, and their ineffective pharmaceutical treatments. The medication I'd been given by the Vet, supposedly to help the puppies' digestive tracts absorb and retain more Food & Liquids, only succeeded in making them much, much worse on the few occasions when I tried administering it. Meanwhile, Activated Charcoal is totally harmless, good for pretty much everyone, has no side effects, and can be taken as a general supplement (no need to be sick, let alone getting a Medical Diagnosis, to start taking it! )
I will always regret what happened and blame myself, never forgetting my little Princepessa -- whom I ended up losing, because she trusted me more than I trusted myself!

I would definitely use charcoal to prevent parvo.
We had parvo run through a litter of puppies we had. We used charcoal as a preventative in puppies that were well. I think it kept them from getting sick.
There is little risk and abundant benefit.
You can refer to this page for dosing information.

I had just got my baby and the person who I got him from claimed he was 9 weeks and I took him to the vet to find out he was only 6 weeks and need to be dewormed. While after being dewormed, he wouldn’t eat or drink anything, he had lost 1lb in a day and you could see his hip bones! I immediately took him back to the vet and he said he had all the signs of parvo and that it would cost me $280 just to do the tests! Normally that wouldn’t have been an issue but I had just moved into my new house with my 3 young daughters and being a full time college student with the new semester starting $280 was a lot at the moment.
The vet gave me some medicines to take home and give him, I started him on the medicines and it seemed to have made him worse! He started throwing up everywhere and just wanted to sleep. So frantically I googled for ways to treat him naturally and came across this post at 3 am, I immediately wrote everything down and went to my local health foods store at 9 am.
I bought the activated charcoal, coconut water, sovereign silver and ACV. By the 2nd does he was up eating and walking around! Today is now day 3 and he’s put some weight back on , he’s jumping around playing , he’s getting back to his normal self.
This natural remedy works and I’m so thankful for these posts because without it I probably would have lost my little boy.

I had my husband purchase Activated Charcoal powder, a bottle of Hydralyte and a small bottle of colloidal silver for me whilst I was on my way home from the vet.
Lunch time Sunday, puppy got his first dropper full of silver and 5ml of the charcoal/hydrlyte solution. I gave the char/hydr solution every 2 hours and the dropper of silver 3 x per day.
Puppy slept all day, had no more diarrhea and no more vomiting. In the afternoon, about 3 hours after his first dose, he was up and ate a few of his fave kibbles and drank some water. I put a raw egg yolk (organic free range) in his mouth and he swallowed most of it. After the egg, he really picked up and had a bit of energy until falling asleep again. He woke when we were eating dinner (some thai food chicken stir fry and rice). He really wanted our food so I washed off a couple small pieces of chicken and he ate 5 of them before falling asleep again. I continued to wake him if necessary to give him a dose of charcoal/hydralyte every 2 hours until about 11pm and he slept fine and I started dosing again at 6am the next morning. By 7am he did a normal (black coloured) poop and a big light coloured wee. All Monday he slept a lot but got up to play a few times, ate his kibbles and drink water on his own. I put another raw egg yolk down his throat Monday afternoon. He played quite vigorously that afternoon with his toys and did another normal poop before going to bed at 10pm and sleeping well. It’s Tuesday, and I am dosing every 3 hours now. He is playing, eating, sleeping and seems happy, albeit a bit lethargic. I am really encouraged by his quick recovery. I am planning to keep dosing but move to 4 hourly tomorrow and then twice per day thereafter, watching him closely.
Thank you earth clinic for the remedy.

I cannot thank this website enough! Thank you for being a source for pets and owners who go through such a stressful time with parvo. I have 4 dachshund puppies who contracted the virus and exhibited symptoms after they got their vaccine and deworming at the vet. It was heartbreaking to have the all suffer. Unfortunately, I didn't think it was parvo in the beginning and lost one of my pups, my beloved Oreo. His death however gave me the strength to fight for the remaining three, had two who were very weak on IV for 1-2days. The other one who was a bit strong and eating, I monitored and made sure she was hydrated, but I know she was still in pain and was still having dark and runny poo. Morning after Oreo died (yesterday, Sunday), I read this post and went off to look for Activated Charcoal, bought Gatorade, Pedialyte, syringe. Then checked out my two other pups - it was too expensive to keep them in the clinic -, and bought multivitamins. Last night until this morning I did the Activated Charcoal mix with Apple Cider and Gatorade. Then I kept wet beef dog food available (remainder of what was given at the clinic) throughout the wee hours and the three of them gobbled most of it by dawn. In the morning, cooked liver with broth and served it to them with white rice.
Again, the three almost finished everything. I am so happy and relieved that we pulled through and now on their way to recovery! We'll folow the rest of the advice here and continue to give them the mixture for a week. Thank you to everyone who contributed! You are all heroes to my three pups: Muffin, Coco, and Kitkat. on hindsight, I know I would have been able to save Oreo with this had I reacted swiftly enough and understood the early warning signs of parvo.
To anyone reading this, going through what we all did - don't hesitate, save your puppies and doggos by strictly following this regimen/treatment!
