This would hardly be a situation that would require inconveniencing friends and family to have someone watch the children and/or take them out of our home to an emergency vet 30 miles away. |
Although this is a dog,it is still an infant. One that is actually to young to be away from mommie dog and it is dependent on you. Little puppies can go from playful to gravely,not gonna make it ill in a matter of hours. Especially little tiny dogs. Blood in the stool in dogs and people is gravely important and yes it is worthy of making a few calls for help. Any of my friends would be glad to take me and a puppy to an ER vet in the middle of the night as well as sit with my sleeping little children. Sometimes you just need to ask for help.
You asked for advice and got an answer,it is up to you to act on the advice.
