| Sick Teddy My little Teddy has been sickley and lethargic all day today. He seemed to have lost all spunk and has just been lying around. He is usually running around and hyper. He has used the rest room today. He is not eating as much as he usually is, and he has just recently started throwing up his food. He wont even eat his favorite treats! what should I do? Advice please. I am worried. |

| I would get him to the emergency vet asap!! It could be so many things. Is Teddy vaccinated?? How old is he? It could be anything from pancreatitis to Parvo which are both very serious if not handled immediately in these small babies. If you have Karo syrup put some on his gums or give him Nutri-cal or some sugar in his water (not sure how much so maybe wait for an answer on that) MAKE SURE HE IS DRINKING, he has to stay hydrated. If he is vomiting give him more fluids by mouth. If you have access to a close Grocery store please get him some Pedialyte and give him that by mouth with a syringe is ideal. Check his temperature rectally as well, and see what it is. Also check his coloring on his gums .. WHITE Is bad. |

| Sick Teddy He has had his first three shots from the vet. He just started vomitting. He is 5 months old. The vet told us to give him a Bordetella vaccine today. He also has his parvo vaccination. Just checked his gums and they are pink. Please help. Thanks |

| He need to go to the vet asap. Things with these little ones turn bad very quickly.
