| I bought a Pomeranian puppy, he was a boy and was what seemed to me full of life. I named him Thumper and brought him home. He liked to cuddle, and loved attention. It was around 4th of July weekend. I noticed something wrong at first because he had diarrhea. Being that he was a new puppy I knew he may have some parasites. But then things turned worse. He started vomiting. I called the emergency number and I stayed up two nights forcing liquids, food, and sugar to make sure he didn't become Hypoglycemic. I tried so much to keep him alive. I then took him to the vet on Monday, and the bad news came he had Parvo. They said that he could still survive if they kept him hydrated and full of sugar. For a week he was there and it was looking good but then that night he went into a coma, and I decided to have him put down. I did not want him to suffer any more. Although I only had him a week, I loved that little boy. I miss him.

I'm so sorry for your loss, at least you tried to save him. Unfortunately, Parvo is a very common virus among puppies and breeders should make sure their puppies are vaccinated as soon as possible but some still fail to do so 
I actually lost a pit bull puppy 8 years ago from Parvo. I had him for 3 days and he was hospitalized for a week before he died. The veterinarian tried everything to try and save him but it was already in it's late stage. I made sure my next puppy was vaccinated.
Again, so sorry for your loss
