Cottage cheese is good, but many of these babies are lactose intolerant, keep an eye on that.Has he had any bowel movements?

No he has not had a bowel movement. He just acts like he wants to sleep. I've been taking him to his water bowel every hour or so and trying to get him to eat. About an hour ago I did get him to eat one teaspoon of his puppy food with chicken broth. I also put syrup under his tongue a couple of times with my finger. He is drinking water so I put some sugar in it. Should I get him up every couple of hours and keep repeating this process?

He should eat 3 -4 meals, and you can always put some syrup on your finger and rub it on his gum, if his stomach is been empty for not eating and throwing up, he may not have anything to poop yet.Did he stop shaking?Is he more alert and seems stronger?

Pet shops get their puppies from puppy mills which are regulated by the USDA and it is illegal for puppies to be sold before they are eight weeks old. :mad:

You were very likely sold a sick puppy.

What does your contract say? Will you be reimbursed for vet bills? This could become a very costly and heartbreaking lesson on why you should never by a puppy from a pet store.

As cold hearted as it may sound, if I were in your shoes I would think seriously about returning him to the pet store now. Even if you are able to get him feeling better now, the odds are great that he may have other health problems down the line that will be very expensive to fix ... if they are fixable.

I would just doing what your doing as long as he is getting some nourishment, his little tummy is very small so he will only take a little bit,but you also can buy some liquid baby formula and by a little medicine dropper, they will be very good for him, give it to him in an upright position and let him take it as wanted.He is whimpering because he misses his siblings and is very strange, just hold him and even wrap him in a little blanket, he will feel more secure. I pray he is ok.

Sadly you come from a state that has many puppy mills, the Yorkshire Terrier Club of America recommends that yorkies stay with their moms, a minimum of 12 weeks, and while many states have laws that are less than this, it includes all breeds and doesn't take into account the special needs of smaller dogs. Best of luck with your little boy, but I hope you become an advocate for better breeding in your state, and learn all you can why pet stores shouldn't sell puppies.

7 weeks is young to be away from mom. but I would find an emergency vet asap. It is not normal for young puppies to vomit especially if he is not eating.

I hope he is okay and everything turns out well

I just wanted to wish the best of luck with your baby. You are taking such good care of him. I am sorry you are going thru such an ordeal.

Keep his body warm and try to keep his tummy full. Grab a blanket and snuggle with him. He is way too young. How about Gerber baby Chicken sticks cut up in tiny pieces....

I really would not advise giving baby food, it often has too much salt for dogs, and some contains onion that can be deadly. Dog food is really the safest, and this can be smashed and mixed with water. I agree try to keep him warm as this can use up too many of their energy reserves.

I know you've tried to contact your local vet, also check to see if you have a banfield in your area...they are usually at petsmart. They are really good with emergency cases. wet food and nutri-cal puppy is a good idea. If you can't get him to the vet until tomorrow keep going with food process until then...and keep him warm. I just got my pup too, wet food in the morning, along with nutri cal and the same thing before bed..may help.

We have talked to the breeders. They claim that we should give him cottage cheese, hawian delight baby food, smashed kibble and warm water mix it all together and he said he would def eat it. We tried and he vomited it up seconds after eating it. Oh! We had to force feed it cause he won't touch any food in his bowl still. Water only. We are having no luck with food period. He claims that we can drop him back off with him for a few days and I don't think so. We will pay top dollar for a vet before we will resort to that. Sugar water is all that he will keep down. Vet called us back and said he should be ok but we should look for a few things like blood in his stool or vomit and as long as he is drinking water and urinating he should be fine till morning. If this occurs she wants to see him asap. She said there are three possibilitys with this A. Parvo B. Shock or C. just low blood sugar. We have 5 kids and they are all home now. They said to keep him in our room and only we are to handle him for a little while. Oh!! Big kids! 16,15,12,10,9. We really feel helpless at this point. All we can do is keep doing what we are doing and tom see what the vet says. Im not happy with the breeder. He acted as if he were fine till we got him. He said he was eating fine. The pet store said he had not eaten since he had showed up there. I better not have any trouble with these folks if there is something wrong cause it will be a bad day for them. Vet says don't count on his shot record being correct either. I hope he will be ok and better by tom but I am very worried.

Maybe you could try some mashed up boiled white rice. I feel so bad that you are having such a trying experience. Please keep us all upto date on how your puppy is doing!

His shot record doesn't mean anything. He was too young to get vaccinations if any were given at all. Puppies get maternal antibodies from nursing and they will interfere with vaccinations given too soon after weaning. A puppy should not start getting vaccinations until he is about 9 weeks old. Your puppy is completely unprotected from deadly diseases like parvo.

Don't believe anything the breeder tells you. It is illegal to sell a puppy to a pet store before he is eight weeks old. You need to report this breeder to the USDA.

I'm sorry too...just do what the vet says, at this point, the pet store or the breeders can't be trusted. just hold him and cuddle him...give him some floor time too, but make sure you keep a blanket or something on the floor with your scent on it. Let's hope it's just shock and he'll be better after a little TLC.
