I want to add something here. I have a friend that has a litter of pups that are 9 weeks old. They got their first series of puppy vaccine about a week ago. Well a few days ago she calls me and tells me that something is wrong with the boy he is refusing to eat. Now she took him in and they gave her flagyl to give to him because they believe it was intestinal. Anyway I called her yesterday to see how he was doing and she says he is still the same, So I thought back to what I did for Tobie when he was being Mr. Picky. I remember I had a bottle of Milk Thistle that was one of the things I had given to him. So I stopped by her house and gave him a dose of the Milk Thistle and a small dose of Dyne watered down . A half hour later and he is following me around and coming to me when I call him. He still isn't eating yet but he was licking the chicken I was trying to feed him. So that gives me hope he will be eating soon. So from 2 experiences with 2 different small pups having roughly the same experience shortly after getting the first puppy vaccines leads me to the possibility that getting a full dose of a vaccine is not good for these smaller pups especially the first time. I know alot of Vets refuse to give half doses so I think that me being a concerned breeder I will start including a bottle of Milk thistle and dosing instructions in my Puppy pacs.
