She never had a seizure. They have stabilized her with IV's and have completed numerous tests and pronounced her perfectly healthy. She is coming home from the vet tomorrow and as of today, she still is not eating for them. I would appreciate any ideas about how I can help my puppy eat and also what to expect as we go forward. |
Wow, she is teeny. I am surprised they are sending her home still not eating.
Do you feed any people foods? That might stimulate her appetite. Boiled chicken, rice, bit of hamburger...
