He is constantly gagging with fluid coming out of his nose......the vet said that there is nothing we can do but continue to tube feed him as we had..and just pray for the best..about every 4 hours with 4mL formula.
He said it was most likely just a failure to flourish....and couldnt describe what was wrong

I just feel there should be something more I can do.....its so sad to see this happen. But I understand if there is nothing I can do.....just want as many opinions as possible.

Thanks
My heart goes out to you. I know exactly what you're going through, how hard you're trying, and how your heart is breaking.

We had this happen and the puppy was autopsied and it had malformed internal organs. It was just mother nature's way. Failure to thrive is about as specific as they can be, sadly.

There are the joys of breeding and then there are the sorrows. Love him up while he's here but don't give up hope.
