My small Chihuahua puppy is ill. When should I take him to the vet?

Your puppy sounds very ill, and if Aurora hasn't been vaccinated, she could be suffering from parvovirus causing her to throw up, have runny stools, and not eat or drink. It could also be she has a severe GI illness, may have eaten something rotten, could have a foreign body, or could have a pyometra as I see she's not spayed. It's not common to get a pyometra in puppies, but it can happen. I would consider her symptoms a medical emergency, and she needs to see a vet now. Please take her into an ER vet clinic; if there isn't one in your area, there will be a vet on call for emergencies. The information to reach that vet is found on a clinic's answering machine or website. Best of luck.

I recommend taking Poppy into an ER clinic. It sounds like she is getting dehydrated and likely needs fluids and other medication to make her feel better. She could have a stomach infection, pancreas issues or even kidney problems. Some cases need lab tests, some xrays, others both, to find out exactly what is wrong. Once the veterinarian diagnoses Poppy they can review a treatment plan to help her feel better.

I'm sorry that Tiny is not feeling well. If this has just started today and there are no other symptoms of illness, you could try enticing her to eat with some plain boiled chicken and white rice or with the canned version of the diet she is already used to eating. If she doesn't start eating and drinking in the next 12 to 24 hours, I would recommend getting her to your regular veterinarian for an exam. If this has been going on for more than 24 hours at this point, especially if she's experiencing vomiting, diarrhea, or lethargy, I would recommend a vet visit as soon as possible. Small dogs are especially susceptible to low blood sugar and dehydration if they don't eat and drink for extended periods of time.

It sounds as Bugatti is suffering from a gastrointestinal condition, possibly an infection. it could also be due to ingestion of a foreign body material. i would recommend taking him to the vet the first chance you get, he will need to be checked first, if the vet thinks it's a simple gastrointestinal infection he will need an antibiotic course and a special food for a few days in order to get better.

I am sorry Alaina is not feeling well. I would recommend taking her to the vet since she has had diarrhea for 4 days and vomiting. These clinical signs can be related to sever gastric upset, foreign object obstruction, toxin, pancreatitis and even parasites. it is best for her to a have a good exam and some testing like blood work to determine the cause. Hope that helps!

Poor Tomy. Drinking a lot of water and a decrease in appetite suggests that he may have an infection. Because he is shaking his head I would have his ears checked first to see if he has an ear infection (otitis external). If he has a deep infection (otitis interns) in the ears, this can also throw off his balance, cause vomiting (motion sickness), and cause him to walk awkwardly. It is best it have him checked by your vet soon to be evaluated and examined thoroughly. Until you can get him in be seen, offer Tomy small portions of canned food to keep him nutritionally sound. Best of luck with Tomy and I hope his ears and current health status improve soon.

Hola, lo mejor seria llevarlo al veterinario para que lo examinen. Con cachorros de su edad, infecciones intestinales lla sea a causa de parvo o parasitos son los mas comunes. Otra causa como haber comido algun material (plastico, juguetes, ropa) que este cuasando obstruccion tambien tiene que ser considerado. Si Delgado empieza a vomitar, no quiere comer, or tiene diarrea, debe llevarlo a su veterinario para que lo examinen. Mientras tanto, puede ofrecerle arroz blanco, pollo hierbido sin gueso por los proximos 3-5 dias. Buena suerte.
