vomiting

Avatar f tn so she got pregnant, on wednesday we brought her to a vet, and he said she has about another month till the puppies come, but guess what, my fiance goes downstairs in the morning today and there they are...4 puppies..one died.. we werent there for her when she was in labour, because she sleeps in the kitchen, and i think one died because she didn't lick the membrane off completely..it was covering its head..or it could of been still born, don't know, sad..
Avatar n tn Puppies can vomit for no reason or for very serious reasons. If she is vomiting AND has loose stools, she needs a trip to the vet ASAP! She could have simply eaten something that didn't agree with her, she could be infested with internal parasites, she could have coccidiosis, she could have Parvo, there is no way to tell over a message board so veterinary intervention is absolutely necessary.

Avatar f tn I have a newborn puppy and his mother won't have anything to do with him. He was born yesterday and we have to hold is mom down for him to eat. Unfortunately we don't know how long to let him eat. He over ate yesterday and it came back up his nose. Now he can't stop sneezing. Is there anything we can do to help him?
Avatar f tn I would wait on a puppy. Have a puppy and a newborn at the same time is like having twins. Plus puppies don't listen to well and I would be worried about the puppy hurting the baby.i would wait till your newborn is at least crawling. My sis had her baby only a week after getting a puppy and if it's not the puppy crying then it's the baby. A newborn is enough work on its own.
Avatar f tn After the puppy has been dried, umbilical cord severed, (and tied if you severed the cord) encourage the mother to lick her puppy, but she may be disinterested in her puppies until she is through giving birth to all her puppies. Then, place the puppy in the small box or basket containing the heating pad or hot water bottle that your have prepared before hand. Make sure the heating pad is not too warm and cover it with some towels.
Avatar n tn she stopped eating yesterday in the morning and is very lethargic. She is moving slowly and sleeping a lot. She had diarrhea yesterday and a lot of vomiting up until late last night, but hasn't had either today. She hasn't eaten since early yesterday morning and she usually 'loves' to eat! She does not look well. Any suggestions?
Avatar f tn Hi I'm trying to get advice from ppl that had experiences with their dogs having blister's.......my dog jus had puppies she was discharging so I put a diaper on her I notice yesterday she has a infected looking blister with a horrible smell on her breast i called the vet she told me I can use a antibiotics cream I can't take my dog in to Monday I need advise I'm scared her puppies might get sick ........
Avatar n tn It could be something bad and I wouldn't risk it! Is there any vomiting? You need to head to an Emergency Vet ASAP! Intestinal blockage is the first thing that comes to mind for a puppy. (They will get into and eat anything!) Next would be "Bloat", but I do not know if it happens in puppies, I'd have to look that up....Good Luck and let us know......
Avatar f tn It usually appears after the puppies have had their first shots, however it is not unusual for it to appear in puppies in the 3 to 5 week age group. You really do need to get these puppies to the vet, however, because once the pustules start, if you do not treat the disease aggressively, the pustules can cause severe scarring of the facial features. The disease is sometimes misdiagnosed as staphococcal pyoderma.
Avatar n tn t have any blood in the stools. For more detail she was laying around, she had a blank look in her eyes, and she only threw up 3 times the day that she died, she wouldn't open her jaw or drink or eat anything, she was really skinny like the other dogs weigh more but she was really skinny, the puppies got ahold of a lot of chocolate the other day maybe that has something to do with it but only she was sick (is it that even possible?). Thanks for the answer it helps a lot.
Avatar n tn length of tube marked off for newborn puppies, but giant breeds, of course, will be larger. When you insert the tube down the puppy's throat, the puppy's natural sucking action will pull the tube in, helping it to feed its way down the throat into the stomach. As long as you have the tube in as far as the mark you made on it, it can be nowhere else but the stomach.
Avatar f tn Depending on your puppies vaccine status viral diseases such as Parvovirus may be the issue. Vomiting leads to dehydration which can be fatal in dogs and puppies if not treated.
3186206 tn?1344746964 Either way, make sure you see his Vet tomorrow......Puppies go downhill very quickly with vomiting and/or Diarrhea.....If this is Parvo, it can be fatal in just hours...... Good luck and let us know how he's doing........
889551 tn?1416184483 Lexi is 7w old now and on Friday we took her to the ER for an allergic reaction to the soy formula. She had a rash and started projectile vomiting. She had been constipated since we switched her formula and then her stools turned almost black, although no blood was present. Anyways, at her last appt at 4w she weighed 8lbs 2.5oz. On friday she weighed 8lbs 8oz. I know the scales can be off it really concerns me that in 3w she's only gained 5.5oz.
1843959 tn?1324629150 I advise telephoning the vet first, to warn them in advance you will be bringing Parvo-infected puppies in.
1004300 tn?1251255067 Congratulations on your upcoming excitement! Taking care of puppies can be a challenge, but definitely worth the effort. First, has her pregnancy been verified at the veterinarian by ultrasound or xray? It could be that she only has one pup and doesn't seem very large to you. Many dogs become very restless right before delivery and their temperature will generally drop to about 99 degrees Fahrenheit from their normal (100 to 102). This usually occurs about 24 hours prior to labor.
Avatar m tn I have recently been given a female pit bull puppy about 8 weeks old, and she started having an outbreak of blisters a couple days ago and she's now vomiting and won't eat. I am extremely concerned and need information as soon as possible. Thank you!
Avatar m tn i am having a German shepherd male puppy 42 days old which i bring to my house 3 days before yesterday get it it's 1st vaccination, there is no blood in its loose motion, is it just diarrhea or parvo??
473883 tn?1322853038 I may be wrong, but I think 53 days IS due date. I don't believe vomiting is part of the labor process, so put in a call to your vet for advice. That will at least put him (or her) on notice that there may be a problem delivery coming his way. Why do these things always happen on a weekend?! Any vet clinic should have an outgoing recording telling you what to do or where to go in an emergency. This situation qualifies.
1708784 tn?1356222414 i woke up yesterday morning to find that in the middle of the night my dog had given birth to 6 adorable puppies, she was great with them yesterday but this morning i woke up to cries from the puppies and mammy was also crying when i went in to check on them i found that mammy was huddled over one side of the bed shaking and looking pretty scared and the puppies were over the other side of the bed crying and all the bedding had been taken out from underneath the puppies and they were lying on t
Avatar f tn Good afternoon cuppy and let me add my congratulations to the new member of your family! I know you must be very concerned about his reluctance to eat. Here are a couple of other things to try in addition to what Dr. Lori said previously: 1) Try putting some of his dry kibble in the freezer. Some dogs like the sensation of cold and he may be inticed to eat it that way. 2) On the opposite extreme, try adding a little warm water to his kibble and see if he likes that.

Avatar n tn This may be no more than an upset stomach....who knows? But the important thing is if he is vomiting, and not drinking he could be in serious danger from dehydration. That is urgent. He will need to go on IV fluids probably, just to re-hydrate him. Please post back if you can, to let us know how it goes. Hope he's ok.
