Help Needed! Puppy has vomiting and diarrhea

[LyndseyR]

Hi,

We picked up our bully puppy a week ago and everything was going brilliantly with feeding, poos were fine sometimes a little soft but formed. He ate last night around 8pm, but became very quiet and unsettled towards the end of the night which is unusual for him. This morning very quiet again his poos are like water and vomiting clear saliva. He won't eat or drink anything and more or less slept this morning which normally he would be bounding around playing. I might be worrying over nothing, any suggestions or advice would be greatly appreciated, thanks

You need to visit vet, just to rule out parvovirus and other serious things. If they rule out serious infections, then it is probably just stress related.

Take your puppy to a knowledgeable, bully experienced Vet
asap!

Could be any number of things but in young puppies a lot can
go wrong (and does) and you can lose them very quickly.

Dehydration is a major risk here, take your puppy in today!

Loose stool in a new puppy can be common due to stress of a new home. But since he is also vomiting and not eating or drinking and somewhat lethargic, I would take to a vet ASAP.

Agree with the gang here.... get your baby to the vet. Quite, watery poo and vomit is not good for a young puppy.

Please keep us posted

Thanks for the advice everyone. Booked an appointment with vets and almost immediately after I put the phone down he drank some water and kept it down. He's had a small meal as well and seems to be back to his playful self just me panicking. He hasn't had anymore diarrhea either

Could have just been a bug or stress. Are you taking him to the vet anyways or wait and see how it goes? With diarrhea and vomiting, staying hydrated is very important.

I'm going to wait and see how he goes. He's had plenty of water and is peeing frequently so fingers crossed that's it. Not been sick since either. Like you say was probably a bug or a bit of stress. Thanks again for the advice everyone

If your dog seems ok now, withhold solid food for 24 hr, but give fluids. After 24 hr give boiled chicken breast with no skin, and rice for a few days. You can also give dimenhydrinate (Gravol) 12;.5 mg/kg every 8-12 hours.

 

[Reggies Parents]

You can also give scrambled egg & rice as a bland diet. Full of protein & very easy to digest.
Let us know how it goes at the vet, but very glad he's holding his water down!

Hopefully the diarrhea resolves itself, if not then its stool sample time!

Update?

Oh he's absolutely fine now don't know what caused it but back to to his normal self now. Thanks everyone for the advice

He seems to be fine now, eating and drinking fine and no more sickness and diarrhea must have been a little bug or something. Vets didn't find anything so all clear of anything sinister. Got one happy little bully again thanks again for all the advice very much appreciated
