| Puppy Pickup So I pick my baby up in a couple of hours from the airport. I've checked that flight status so many times my browser doesnt want to refresh any longer LOL. My question though is this: My baby got car sick on her way in and i was told to give her some sugar water. How do i make sugar water? How much to give? Do I also give her some kibble when I pick her up. |

Donating YT 3000 Club Member | I am so excited for you. I would go the the pet store and get Nurical. It is much better. I would bring a little food and water with you. Also paper towels and baby wipes.

| Congrats! I know youbhave to be anxiously waiting, I would suggest nutrical you can try and hurry to pick some up at a petstore if you cant the sugar water will have to be your fallback. I am unsure on how much water and how much sugar maybe someone else could advise you on that. Oh and congrats again.

| I wanted to stop on our way home so I can get her fitted for a harness. She cannot go outside without one as we have red tail hawks in our area. Plus I also needed to pick her up some puppy food. |

| You will be lucky if you can find Nutrical at Pet Smart anymore. Our PetSmart only sells the GNC Ultra High Calorie Booster, that smells really, really bad. I asked about them carrying Nutrical any longer and was told they will no longer carry it. Good thing my Groomer carries it in her shop! Good luck. I was also told that Kyro Syrup is good too. Rub a dipped finger along the inside of their mouth, roof and where ever else you can give in orally. I'm so very excited for you but you do want to be sure you have it with you. We would have lost our pup if we hadn't had it on our way home. Please post tons of picts!!! So very excited for you!!

Donating YT 30K Club Member | How exciting! I hope she does fine on the way home, but Nutrucal or something similar would be a good idea.

BANNED! | Congrats on your new baby! I could only find nutri cal at petco & not any other pet stores. It's prolly only sold at big chain stores. I just wanted to give u a pointer, make sure you buy nutri cal puppy. They have just regular nutri cal for all dogs...I had bought that one first. But later when I had gone to another petco I seen the puppy one. Good luck & have fun with your new baby! . |

| If she's a pup taking her to a pet store without all her shots is risky.

Very risky! *IF* your baby is a puppy, I would definitely steer clear away from pet stores. I would not be taking her into it Petsmart, Petco- Don’t take her anywhere that dogs have been.. this also means grass areas, dog parks, or even parks in general- until this little one is up to date on her vaccines. Also for future reference, never stick her in the shopping carts. I use to work at Benfield ( The Vet in Petsmart) you wouldn't believe how many people brought their sick dogs into the Vet in the shopping cart. Those carts are very dirty! Petsmart does not clean them. Peanut is 5 years old and I still never stick him in a cart!! Now for the happy stuff!! OP: Congrats on your baby!! Hopefully we get to see some pics soon!
