Sounds like parvo virus. You really should take him to the vet to be sure though. I had a similar experience with a lab puppy several years ago. In an attempt to nurse him back to health, I spoon fed him chicken flavored Gerber's baby food, clear pedialyte, and gave him lots of love. It took some time, but he did pull through, and lived for many years afterwards. Good luck.

Get the puppy to the vet. There are many things a dog can have that will cause these symptoms, some very serious. Not getting the puppy treated a.s.a.p will just make the matter worse and is also very cruel. Don't let the poor thing suffer get her help.

Have you had her vaccinated for Parvo virus? Get this little one to the vet immediately! A puppy will dehydrate in nothing flat and could very possibly die from fluid loss. Since today is Labor Day, if you can't get her to a vet, try to get some pedialite and dropper feed her to get some into her. Even if she throws it back up keep trying, she will be getting something from it. Better thannothing. But please seek the advice and treatment of a qualified veterinarian as soon as possible.

Yes, go to the Vet. My pup had something like this a few weeks ago and the Vet put him on a diet of baby food and rice, and pills to take. He is fine now.

You need to take this dog to the vet I would worry about dehydration. And that is a killer of puppys. No use trying to figer out why but how to make your puppy better.

Why would you not be at the vet right now????? She very likly has parvo and will die without treatment. If you cannot afford to get her to a vet, give her to a shelter who can care for her.

YOU NEED TO GET OFF THE COMPUTER AND TAKE HER TO THE VET. She could have PARVO which can kill her! I am not the doctor but they can run the tests and see, either it's parvo, worms, coccxydia, or she has gotten into something...you need to take her now and find out...she is losing fluids which is not healthy...GO NOW!

please take your pup to the vet, it sounds bad. If it was an older dog you could probably help her with home remedies, but puppies need a vet if this is an on-going thing. They don't have too much weight to loose in the first place.Good luck.

Take the poor little dog to the vet. It should do well there. It maybe ate something bad or is sick.

my dog used to have similar symptoms. it could be food poisoning plus other stuff. a rather safe home remedy would be to give her charcoal pills (absorbs toxins in the stomach) and provide with lots of water. but as always, the vet's the safest option.
