My son recently adopted a puppy that quickly became sick with the parvo virus. He is now home and recovering, but how soon can we have our son visit us with the puppy since we have a dog at home and are concerned he may still be contagious?

Wait until your dog is healthy again. Make sure to disinfect with bleach. Keep the puppy out of where the other dog went to the bathroom. It can last in the yard up to a year. Make sure the puppy is fully vaccinated.
They can be contagious up to 6 weeks. Ask your vet for clearance.
If your dog has been properly vaccinated he should not have a problem.
A puppy gets it's 5 in 1 puppy shot starting at the age of 6 weeks,one every three weeks until the age of 15 weeks,then it gets a booster and rabies shot..
