Thank God he is under vet care on IV. It will make a world of difference. You did exactly the right thing by taking him in, and not waiting. Good for you!
I am so sorry you have to go thru all this, and were treated so rudely at the ER vet. What a rough start.
Coccidia is fairly common in puppies and very much treatable, especially when you catch it early. One of my pups came home with it. I read that when they are fighting off a bacteria etc. that drops in blood sugar (hypoglycemia) can occur more easily. It is also common in the tiny ones like your little guy.
I pray that little Doodle will make a speedy recovery. Hope he's back to his normal self tomorrow and ready to come back home. |
