2 Day Bought Puppy in the Vet Hospital
After a day with the puppy, I commented in our forum that:
Man, this puppy is small and frail. Should’ve gotten one more mature. All he does is whine and sleep. I don’t think he’s strong yet.
Is he pure? I don’t know.
As long as when he grows up he barks and guards our house, then he’ll be worth it.
and then the following day
Was he taken off of his mother’s milk too early?
Seems like it.
I took him to the vet for hydration and support.
He’s staying there until he recovers.
After that one meal, he has since refused to eat and drink.
He’s dehydrated.
And after the first meal with me, he pooped liquidy stool, I count 3 liquidy stools the first afternoon I got him.
Vet said that’s not normal, he must have been sick the day I got him.
And he says the pup looks too young, not weaned enough.
The seller said the pup was born September 3, seems that’s not true the vet said.
Vet said the anus has blood when he put the thermometer in.
And no worms in the microscope.
His temp is too low 36 degrees celsius only
And he’s dehydrated.
And has poor blood circulation.
Ah well, you learn some.
Hope the dog survives.
Someone commented. Its likely he is either too young or he could have been the runt of the litter.
That’s what the vet said… RUNT of the litter or too young.
Hope he survives, the kids and I will visit him tomorrow.
At least I’m learning from the vet, how to check symptoms of a dog.
