Update On Rottie Mix Pups From Olney, Illinois, UPDATE ON PAGE 3. 12/26/06

That sounds like a good sign honey. I think its digestive upset. Remember I said change in water can even do this.
After you go to the vet, and its just that, get some unflavored pedialyte and mix half and half in the water bowl. This will help with the digestion. I know you are feeding a puppy food, but try bil jac puppy. It turns to instant mush when you add any warm water, and that will help the stomach acids from working so hard.

Would a digestion issue make her weak and blah? Not wanting to eat? She just drank som water. I gave her some pedialyte with a syringe earlier. I was told that would help her (anemia) if I mix it with a small amount of sugar. I am going to try that puppy food by Bill Jac. Thank you for the advice.

No matter the outcome, you gave those pups a chance and you should feel good about that.

Good vibes coming your way for the little ones.

I know I gave them a chance, but it is still so sad to know something maybe really wrong. Thank you for your kind words.

I've been keeping up with this thread, having seen it last night in Cat and of course "dog General.

Praying real hard up here in the old "Mitten State" that "Butter" and "Peanut" will pull through!!!

I confess, however, that I have fallen in love with Hope~


God Be with "You" and those Adorable Pups!!!

If you go back the yesterdays DOTD the story of the dogs said that the dog got parvo when a pup. The person didn't have the money either for vet treatments or visits. But she nursed him back to health at home.

Maybe Karen can some how get the email of that person and give it to you so she can help you. Just a suggestion.

A upset tummy makes them feel " seasick" and yes they will not eat. After the vet- try a handful of bil jac puppy, and add a little raw egg ( mixed prior so its not all white or yoke) and give her a drop of molassas or honey. That will help raise her sugar.
We need to wait to see what the vet says. Keep us posted- I am following this closely.

Maybe it is a combination of a bad case of worms along with stress and food changes. I am encouraged that there is no blood in her stools. With the liquid diarrhea, she is probably very dehydrated and that will really drain your energy. I would try to force some pedialyte in her as much as possible. Please let us know what happens at the vet!

Thanks for giving these babies a chance!

Hugs,
Kim

We at The Found Cat Hotel are praying hard for those Pups, that its something that they can get over.
You are doing the best that you can, which is a lot more that thier so called Guardians who discared them ever did.
God Bless You for caring.

We here will be praying hard for them too. I have to agree with MyPeanuts though, you gave those pups a fighting chance they would have NEVER had at the shelter. I wish you all luck and I'll be sending good vibes and thoughts your way.

How did it go???

The Vet is scheduled for tomorrow morning. I will post as soon as I find something out. It may not be until about this time because I have work. Till tomorrow, I am giving her pedialyte by syringe every few hours. I pray she makes it. Right now, she is just laying there looking so sad. She ate just a tad bit tonight, but she attemped, that counts. Thank you everybody and I will be in touch.
