A plasma transfusion from the stud dog has worked in saving "fading puppy syndrom" providing he had be recently vaccinated. I don't believe it has been tested in toy breed but has been successful in large breed dogs. Fading puppy is as Yorkie kid explained either intestinal or bacterial, a puppy needs mom's colostrum to protect them from infections but sometimes it's not enough. Amoxi is what most vets suggest but is not always successful. |
