Default Your 2 lb. yorkie

You need to get to the Vet and get your puppies on a drip, so they do not get dehydrated!!!!! They also need medicine to clear up Giardia, it does not clear up by itself! If a puppy keeps throwing up, it loses all the natural good bacteria, and only a drip from the Vet can rehydrate them while their tummy settles down. I would also check for coccidia, as that comes from the stress of going to a new home, and can be deadly if not treated, their poop will smell really bad, and does not always show up on the stool sample, it is treated with a Sulfur drug for 14 days. If the medicine does not clear up the problem, back to the vet and insist on another check for coccidia, it can eat holes in the intestinal track and kill your puppy! Please keep us posted, and get those babies on drips, you do not want to take any chances, they do need to fast to settle down their tummy, but not without a drip to keep them hydrated!

Best of Luck, I am worried about your little 2 lb. baby!
