2 month old yorkie throwing up and diarrhea My little boy Rocky is sick he has been throwing up and has diarrhea. He drinks water just fine but I tried to give him some dry dog food to absorb the acids in his tummy but he wont take it. I'm scared he ate something he shouldn't have, I found some Lays potato chips on the floor in the kitchen my son must have dropped I'm thinking maybe he ate them and the salt is making him sick. I asked my son if he noticed the puppy eating or chewing on anything that might have made him sick and he said he seen a chewed up band aid in his room maybe he swallowed a piece of that , can that be dangerous? Please help I'm freaking out. Thanks in advance |
I'm sorry nobody has replied yet... I wish I had some good advice for you, but I am a new yorkie (and puppy) owner. But I might be able to predict what questions you'll be asked... How much does he weigh? The tinier the pup, the faster things can go downhill for him, from what I understand, and the more cautious you have to be with their health. How many times has he vomited so far, and in what time frame? How many diarrhea poos, and in what time frame? I really wish I could actually tell you something helpful, but I wouldn't know what to do either. IMO, it's a good sign that he's drinking so he hopefully won't get dehydrated, but then again that might have something to do with the potential excess salt. I suppose in reality, when in doubt, call your vet (or an emergency vet place). Good luck... I hope he's ok! Keep us updated, and hopefully you'll get some other advice from the people here on YT. Everyone's sooooo wonderful and helpful here, when they're awake :-) Lauren & Nikko |
Anytime such a young pup is throwing up or having loose stools, it can be an emergency. They can dehydrate very quickly and since he hasn't completed his vaccines yet, it could be something very serious. He needs to see a vet immediately. |

Please let us know what the vet says. |
I would get him into the vet as soon as possible since he is so young. It is better to err on the safe side and have him checked out. I hope he is feeling better soon. |
We are on our way to the vet it is 8:30 am hear and our appointment is at 9:30 and Rocky has been drinking water I thank you all for your help and I will keep you all posted as to how he is doing. |
Hay all, Well Rocky was diagnosed with Parvo and is currently staying over night at the hospital although it is a very hard thing my baby and I are going threw I am very grateful for this forum and the people who have responded to my post with concern. I will go see him in the morning and update you all then . Thanks again and have a happy holidays. |

Oh my goodness, I'm so glad you took him to the vet right away. I figured that's what everyone would say... and it's certainly always the safest thing to do, whenever you're in doubt, and especially for such a young puppy (I missed that he was only 8 weeks!). I sure hope he's going to be OK - sounds like you and your vet have a handle on things now. I don't know much about Parvo except that it's quite difficult. I'll be thinking about him (and you) tonight. :-) Good luck, and please do let us know how he's doing when you hear more. Goodnight, Lauren & Nikko |
I am so sorry for you and your family. This is heartbreaking, but thank God you got him into the vet early. |
I am sorry to hear that the baby has Parvo...hopefully it was early enough that he will pull through. Please keep us updated. Sending lots of hugs and prayers your way!!! |
:( I'm sorry your baby is sick . Please keep us updated ((( hugs))) |
