My 3 month old pup got another set of shots on friday and her appetite hasnt been the same since. She did fine after her shots before but this time it was a different vet. She hasnt touched a bite of food all day and wont even eat her favorite treat. She last ate sometime between 630-11pm last night. Is this normal, should I be worried??: confused:

will she eat canned wet food? what color are her gums? how much does she weigh? what shots was she given?

I have never tried her on canned food
her gums are light pink look white in some areas
shes a big girl she weighed 4lb 5oz on friday at 3 months
she was given 2 shots a 6-in-one distemper/parvo and canine corona virus

I would be concerned about the color of her gums. I know it's Sunday, but can you call your vet for some input?

next time insist that the shots be spread out over 3-4 weeks... no matter the size that many shots at once is too much for our little guys.

Do you have honey or corn syrup? i'd rub some of that on her gums to bring her blood sugar up. Will she take yogurt or fruit? try to get SOMETHIGN in her even if it isn't her kibble. IF she starts breathing hard, looks lethargic or has a glassed over look on her eyes- you need to get her to the ER vet.

Thanks for all your help I do have some honey and I will rub some on her gums. She still will not eat her food but I got her to eat some of her favorite treat. I tried calling the vet but there is no answer. After this I really need to look into finding a vet that has 24 hour services.
