What do you mean when you say you don't know what food your puppy was given to start? What sort of breeder would allow puppy to leave home without telling the new owner (and probably giving them food to start off with) what the puppy had been having and its requirement for the future?

Had you not learned how to feed a puppy? Do you know what quantity and how often puppy needs to be fed? I haven't read any other replies but I hope you will see a vet as puppy shouldn't be getting sick and maybe that hot pocket was not the right thing to feed it as it probably had too much sugar, jam etc if a hot pocket is what I think it is.

I hope you know not to feed dogs any chocolate, dried fruit, onions and grapes because it's very bad for them. Puppies re generally very lively and playful and need to be played with and puppies don't just lie there as you said... please seek help!!!


Edit: I'm going to see what others have replied to you with, but please take great care of your puppy and stay on here and keep us informed.

I have a boxer also so she is fed right its just the breeder didn't say what he fed her to begin with. She only eats dog food she back at home and acts like she should full of energy. Thanks for everyones help. She had a virus so the vet took care of her and got her back to normal we have to give her medication. Thanks again

So pleased to know all is now well. I really am sure that a caring breeder would have made sure that you knew what food to feed her and many breeders give some food to the new owner to ensure their new puppy has the same as it previously had to avoid changes, upset tummies etc.

I don't think he was a caring breeder he didnt mention anything and she was in a large crate with her brother when I picked her up

That's so sad! How is she doing now? What did the Vet have to say?

Awww poor girl! Good job she has you to love her! I hope her brother has a nice home by now.

I would have had to bring them both home!!!

It was a something viral she lost a lot of weight. But now she's healthy and pleasently plump got all her weight back and is doing good. If I had the money I probably would of took her brother just to get him in a better place.
Thanks everyone
