    There is no set span of life for a dog who has parvo. It just depends on how strong the dogs immune system is.

      My dog (almost 5 now) caught parvo when he was too young to get the immunization.  he was hospitalized due to dehydration (which is what kills parvo dogs), released a few days later, and has been fine ever since. Keep up the immunizations and your dog should be fine.  my vet told me that parvo is a virus, and it has to run its course.  this is the first i ever heard of treating it w/ shots and pills.
