When Geoff was speaking with the vet over the phone (THE GOOD VET!!)...she told him that the prescription medicine that was given to Livi should never have been!!! Apparently, the other vet had not been giving her this med while she was with them the past two days, but sent me home with the pills to give to her. I am the one that gave Livi that pill earlier and these problems with the puppies' tummies and weakness started.

I don't know anything yet...Geoff did call and tell me that he is there and that he will let me know more when he can. Cadbury isour biggest one...these puppies were INCREDIBLY healthy!!! That medicine should have NEVER been prescribed to Livi and I should have research the med before giving it her.

I just hope that Cinnamon and Cupcake remain strong because I made the decision to send Geoff with only Cadbury and now I am second-guessing that decision....
Tammy I am so sorry that you are having all this stress. I hope the puppy does OK. Are the others nursing OK now. I don't know about the meds, but would think they would have told you that it is not OK to let the puppies nurse. Is it possible that he aspirated some milk and has pneumonia?

Keeping you in my prayers.
