Thank you so much for the wonderful advice. I don't know why I didn't think of that. I love mashed potatoes when I'm sick. That's about all I can eat. I did offer him the saltines during the night, wouldn't try them. But I did give him a lot of Pedialite with syringe several different times. This morning, he was very slow getting started, but he did eat just a little bit of his Innova kibble and with about 1 tsp of his Innova pup wet food. I gave him some Nutri Cal on a teaspoon and he loved that. Then I gave him a bath and he felt much better. I have him here at work with me, and he seems to be on track. Thank you so much for responding. I was freaking out bad.
