What should i do if my dog is throwing up and has diarreah and doesnt eat2007-11-25 2:53:08

took her to the vet but they just gave us medicine...is the dog ganna die...

Answers:

I've had many puppies die from what seems to be Parvo because I had no knowledge of this. The dog I have now is a survivor and I realized rather late that she was infected. While there is "no cure" we kept my dog alive after intensive care. We had her get shots right away with antibacterial and other sorts to keep her hydrated and nurished daily for about a week and a half. Be extremely careful b/c they can die rather sudden. One day they are a little sick and before you know it they have no energy, don't eat or drink and die suddenly. She is a great dog and is a very healthy 6 yr. old (human years). Make sure that dog gets it's vaccination shots immediately.

If you've already taken it to the vet just make sure to give the dog its medication and it should be fine.

If the medicine doesn't help, I would go to another vet and get a second opinion.

GO TO A VET

First, you need spell check.

Second, if you took the dog to the vet, AND are following the administration of the medication carefully and the dog is not getting better, take it back to the vet.

Your vet knows your dog a lot better than people online MIGHT. When in doubt, vet.

Edit to Add -- telling us the dog tested positive for Parvo might have been one of those minute details to include in your original post. Good grief. that's a very serious virus. It's a lot more than my dog is throwing up and the vet just gave us medicine. The vet gave you a diagnosis. Do what the vet said and pray. And keep your dog isolated from other pets.

Did you recently change the puppy's diet or give her something that could have upset her stomach?

---

Call the vet and let him know that the puppy is no better.
