Oh my Seems to be an awful bug that is going around and then you add in the food recall and it's been crazy how many doggies have been sick

More than her age, I would be concerned about her size. If she is very small (under 4 lbs, say) then she can go down much more quickly than a larger dog. Try giving her some plain boiled chicken breast and plain white rice to help settle her tummy. Some gatorade is also helpful when they have vomiting or diahrreah to help keep them hydrated, force with a syringe if you have to.

Definitely get a tube of Nutri-cal or Nutri-stat to keep on hand for emergencies. Karo syrup or maple syrup works too. If you cannot get any of these, then you can make Simple Syrup---
INGREDIENTS:
2 parts sugar
1 part water
PREPARATION:
Bring the water to a boil.
Dissolve the sugar into the boiling water.
Once the sugar is dissolved completely, remove the pan from the heat.
Allow to cool completely and bottle.

I hope that Coco is feeling much better today
