Darlene, you will soon find out that when posting a serious issue on this forum you are going to be instructed to take the puppy to the vet; however, I do understand your situation.

The special diet they told you to give the puppy sounds a little odd to me. It's as almost as if they knew there were digestive issues. At any rate, it's your situation now and I'm sure you'll do the best that you can. But, I'm not quite so sure that canned cat and dog food is the best thing to feed.

I'm no expert by any means, but I have managed to raise 4, only with a lot of help from this forum and others! Try this: boil a little chicken breast and making it mushy, putting a little broth on it. White meat is less greasy than dark. That dog and cat food you are feeding is going to cause stomach upsets, and will give runny stools. Anything like that from a can is probably not the best thing to do for your little baby, mine can't eat canned food at all. I think you should change his diet immediately.

Have you spoken to a vet? Please post what the vet told you.

Best of luck to you, and keep us posted.
