I agree on the Pedialite as we had to do this with my Chanel when she was a baby - but if your puppy hasn't eaten since
Monday on her own - I really really think you need to take her to the vet asap...
there could be something else going on - that's 5 days without eating and she should be feeling better if she's being treated for Coccidia....Have you been talking with your vet ? If you're not getting help from the vet - I would call another one ....that's a tiny little baby and they can go down fast if sick -
GOOD luck with your puppy - you sound like you're doing really good feeding her ...but I'd still go in for medical help if it were me
