Don't want to add to your worry but be careful of the dreaded hypoglycemia. This is a formula from someone here that I have copied so I will always have it handy.....my baby slipped into a coma and scared the #%@ outta me!
1/2 cup half and half (someone else suggested using goat milk)
1/2 cup baby rice cereal
1 jar meat baby food, anything but turkey
1 tsp. karo or pancake syrup
Mix together and add a little water if it's too thick for the syringe. Give approximately 2-4 cc's every hour (depending on size), then when the pup is doing better, you can increase the amount and decrease the frequency. After a day or two of this, as long as they are eating this on their own, gradually add softened kibble or canned food and slowly decrease the baby mixture until they are eating the food. Should take a week or so to do the change, to avoid upsetting their tummy.
