I would definitely begin using a daily probiotic in a supplement form as there just isn't enough in yogurt. This may be enough to help your baby, but if things continue I would invest in a consultation with a nutritionist before other health problems arise.

If it is a virus, then yes other dogs could get it from her.

Hope your baby feels better soon!
thanks for your help, lunchtime she was worse so I got her to the vet and they said virus. Her gums were white and temp high. They gave her a jab to stop her being sick, antibiotics ,pro-kolin paste and some rehydrate sachets. I asked about Nutrical and they said sugar on the gums does the same thing.
Anyhow she has had some chicken and rice , about a tablespoon and it now having a nap. Hopefully she will be fine.thanks
