We had our pups die from this and the vet checked and checked...had bad snap tests and told us some puppies are just meant to die and there was nothing we could do. They had this for a month before I read up on everything and went for a second opinion!! Please tell her to get this checked or go to a diff vet!!! Give puppies kyro syrup in the water and in their mouths several times a day - every few hours if needed. If it's a really bad case of coccidea it will lower the blood sugar so fast that the nutrical can't even help. Giardia causes them to stop eating. We force fed one of ours for two months until we could get her to eat on her own. When ours were really bad like it sounds like hers are now we had to tube feed ever few hours and give the kryo syrup. Kryo syrup is not something I would usually rather use over nutrical, but in this case you need to. Don't let the vet tell you that the pups are too small like ours did- there should never be a litter all go down just because they are small. Let me know and feel free to PM me if you have any questions!! We got this from bringing a dog into our home (the test were bad at our vet) so they were allowed in with our dogs. Our puppies never go outside, but really the parents can get this from just going outside OR it even can be brought inside on your feet! |
I will tell her all this. Thanks a million as I don't know if they checked the stool or not.
I know she said she might try the tube feeding on the one as the others she said seem to be doing better.
