puppy question.

Re: puppy question.
i guess it could be parvo. it not a garenteed killer but not many survive. we had a puppy that got parvo the vet told us that he could watch her and keep her hydrated or we could take her home and just keep her hydrated. they told us that the second one has a higher success rate because the puppy in in a familiar place but you need to pretty much stay with them constanly for about a week. but hopefully it is just something small

and i boiled the beef seprete from the chicken.. the puppy has no problem biting through the chicken.. and it just bites the ---- out of the bigger bones till it breaks the outer edges.. and eats up the marrow..
but ----. im gonna not feed it anything except for puppy food.. it WILL give in eventually right?
i just got her canned food.. but i REALLY dont want to give it to her.. untill i take her to the vet tomorrow.. i found someone else.. cause i dont want liquid ---- all over my car.. and no. im not being selfish :P

Speaking of chewbones, you ever seen those "Greenies" they are like $20 a box!! Anywho, my fiance is doing externships at a vet practice right now and they've had a bunch of dogs come in from choking on them.
For chewbones, Id suggest something that dissolves and not that hard gelatin-like stuff. That or something plastic thats too big to swallow.
