How Do You Know If A Puppy Is Sick?

If it's lethargic, not eating, coughing, vomiting, or has diarrhoea. If it has discharge from the eyes or nose. If the ears smell and are full of a brown, waxy substance. If it is scratching and/or losing hair or has sores on any part of its body. If it is limping or appears to be in pain. Any of these circumstances warrant a visit to the vet.

hey just a quick question guys...

my friends puppy is not eating and has lost a bit of weight over the past copule of days.......we have her brother here and he did the same thing last week but after 3 days of sleeping and not eating or drinking he got up drank some watered down cows milk and he was fine....

we think it may have been the puppy milk they were drinking....

anyone got any suggestions????

you shouldnt be giving cows milk, the lactose can cause worst problems.

pups need a better diet then milk, some softened puppy kibble or a good quality and some smashed chicken necks are good. Conversely some rice boiled up with chicken in it (no cooked bones EVER to any dog) can bring them back.

If a pup refuses to eat or drink for a couple of days go to the vet, dehydration can make them worst and then its more problems.
