    why is it they all get sick on saturday nights? :(

    all was fine n dandy.. till tonight.. went to feed the puppers and nameless didn't touch her food.. I could see she was not feeling good.. but she had been really well overall.. she did presented mushy poop.. but rather normal .. considering flight, stress, new surroundings, food change.. etc..

    needless to say I´m panicking.. sat night and no vets AT ALL.. we have no ER's either.. fortunately there is a vet that opens tomorrow and will take her as soon as they open..

    she has been vaccinated and her booster is needed but I was waiting a few more days till her tummy and her settled..

    she's a normal pup that plays and all.. still as of earlier today.. but also chews all.. so I'm worried it might be parvo or something she ate and shouldn't..

    I went out to check for poops.. but couldn't see a thing.. besides the backyard not being lighted well enough and it being dirt and other pups sharing the space, it was hard to tell if they were pee spots or liquid poop.. or whom they belonged to

    hope she hangs on tonight and I can get her in time to fix whatever she has wrong..

    what worries me too.. is she's a bit underweight.. I know the breed is slim.. but still she was a bit underweight and I didn't wanted to stuff her up too soon and do more damage.. now I'm worried..

    please send us healing vibes ..

    I will say a prayer for her, that's it is something minor. Puppies can be so worrisome!

    Prayers that your pretty baby is ok. It could be all the stress, change of food, etc.

    Nameless is the Borzoi? I forget, lol. Prayers that all is well.

    Puppies do get upset tums rather often, as I recall. They are so busy investigating and learning about the world, and like human babies, everything seems to go in the mouth.

    we're back.. today she was perkier as usual.. the vet said it didn't seemd parvo.. but couldn't be 100% certain yet.. but by the symptoms she seemed pretty good overall.. since she had no blood and she was avid and curious, no fever..and the fact that she ate this morning.. it could probably be just a tummy flu.. but better safe than sorry

    he did gave me some meds for the diarrhea and some vitamins.. I'll be getting some electrolytes for her as well.. he gave me his cell in case she got worse.. but we hope for her to get better

    please still keep her in your thoughts for a couple days till we see how she progresses... thank you

    I'm glad she checked out good at the Vets. She has had a lot of changes in a short amount of time.
    Such a pretty girl should have a pretty name.

    So glad she is okay.
    Question: What did you put on the paperwork at the vet? Nameless?

    Are you open to name suggestions from us?
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

    so far so good.. she did had another runny poop.. but she also ate

    hoping she gets only better n better.. (I'll be watching like a hawk.. haha.. but wouldn't we all..)

    the vet didn't started a file on us because she was still nameless.. lol.. so no name on any papers..hehe

    but.. I've been thinking and I think I have it.. call me weird... but I want to wait a few days till she's ok.. I don't wanna jinx it :P
    it does has a lot of meaning.. that's why ..

    but I'd love to hear name suggestions anyway.. who knows who'll come next :P .. I do need a name for the Chi..at least so I can call him something rather than dog (owners haven't stepped forward yet.. no posters, no ads, no nothing.. weird no-one is looking for him.. I've been more worried looking for ads looking for him rather than the actual owners.. hope I'm wrong but it seems that way)

    I hope your pup gets better. She might just be getting used to her food, surrounding and everything. I hope she feels better soon.
    Borzoi do tend to have very delicate tummy and are prone to bloat so be careful as she gets older. They tend to wolf down food.
    I've never had a Borzoi but was close to a few of my bosses borzoi. I love the breed. They are so elegant and sweet, playful and caring.
    She will be fine. As for a name... I think it should be Angel. She looks like an angel and was sent to you from an angel. Hugs
