I told my husband last night that we are definite retesting! And thank you guys for bringing up delaying Violet's shots. I'm going to do that as well! Violet this morning compared to Violet yesterday morning is like a whole new pup. She's playing with her brother right now and after going out to potty this morning, she was sitting in the laundry room looking at the cabinet where we keep their food. She's so hungry. The vet gave us some canned food, bland stuff, and she liked it last night but not so much today. She keeps wanting to go over and eat Finn's kibble. Also drinking, I'm really not seeing her drink much water at all and I don't want her to get dehydrated. She was yesterday and the vet gave her some fluids. Anything I can do get get her to drink more??

Ice cubes. They love playing with them then end up eating it. I always boil turkeys for the pups, cut them up in pieces n freeze them in ziplock bags which is topped with it's broth. I also started to keep some broth to do "broth ice cubes." Boil the turkeys for 5 hrs n you'll get tons on great minerals from the bones with is fantastic for your pups n yourself if you want to do a real homemade soup. (Remove all fats).

Im glad little V is starting to show signs of "im hungry feed me"..... that's a sign we all want to see.

Violet and Finn are doing amazing!! :). It's bedtime and they are snoozin in their crate next to me. She bounced back quick and is back to her fun little puppy self! They are both almost finished with the antibiotics and we haven't seen anymore blood nor have we seen any diarrhea! I will make sure to get their stool retested because this was NOT fun! Seeing Violet in the condition she was in on Thursday was just heartbreaking. She literally would do nothing but sleep in my husband's lap. Thank you and Ellie for checking on them!!

Hi, you've already received great information and advice from others, I agree there are so many different reasons that can cause diarrhea and upset tummy in a new puppy, they are very sensitive, and bullies seem to be extra sensitive.
I would definitely change their food to a better one. My guys came from the breeder on Royal Canin and I switched them to Fromms. I would also wait to find out the stool sample results, and then treat according to what they have, whether it be an infection, a parasite, worms or a virus. Please keep us posted on what the vet says. I hope they feel better soon
