I kind of doubt the over-the-phone diagnosis of LS. Typically, LS pups don't grow very well and Buster is 2 pounds at 7 weeks. It sounds more like severe hypoglycemia from the posts. It seems that it's been at least 4 days since he ate well. He would naturally have more of a problem with substantial foods since his stomach is so empty so that may explain the problem with the canned food.
