Need help with 11 week old

MaggieM&ZoeyB · 10-25-2011, 10:39 PM

I have a 11 week old pup when we got her her poop was hard like normal she pukes when she rides in a car. But over time her poop became soft and wet. Today she started puking a little and now she has mucus and a little blood in her poop and its runny still. And she just lays there any help would be great I'm calling the vet tomrrow
Thanks

How long have you had her? Stress can cause an upset tummy.

Have you changed her food at all?

Definitely see the vet if she is vomiting, as a puppy she will get dehydrated quickly. Keep us posted! And give us details (name, color, etc) and pics

Stress could be caused by any number of things but in this case it could be because she is in a new home, with new people and new surroundings, etc.

I asked about a food change because a sudden change in food could cause intestinal distress. So when you do change, change slowly.

But if she is vomiting and has diarrhea...definitely see the vet.

I think she vomited because my daughter decided to share her hot pocket with her little friends. I dont know what food she was givin to start so I just started her on puppy food. I guess with her age her body probably doesnt like it.
Thanks again a bunch for the help

with a puppy you want to use a large breed puppy food, I would contact whoever you got the dog from and find out what it was being fed start there and if you want to change food do so gradually over time starting at a 1/8 neww to 7/8 old food ration and increase 1/8 neww and decreaseold by the sam amount each week. that said with diarrhea a day of fast is often best with an adult but often not so good to try with a puppy because of their energy requirement a bland diet of most boiled rice an a bit of boiled chicken 10 time more rice than chicken by volume is a good place to start

With a puppy diarrhea and vomiting can be signs of a serious ilness as well and should not be taken lightly or simply allowed to play out without a vet visit.

A puppy that "just lays there" needs to see a vet.

I couldnt get her to the vet today but my wife said she fed her wet food I think that may of caused her to not feel so great. But i got home from work she meet me at the door she now shell lay there for a bit then get up and start playing with my boxer. So shes starting to act normal again she was drinking and eating the dry food again. But I'm still goung to get her to the vet for precautions. She acted like her belly was hurting and didn't feel good and seems to be doing better today.. just kinda looking at as her being an infant. Thank you everyone

I'm glad she seems to be doing a bit better, but I'm even more happy to read that you still plan a visit to the vet

Keep us posted!
