Hi to everyone on 'COL',
my name's Catherine and I'm lucky enough to have a new arrival of an 8 week old little baby boy chocolate roan cocker spaniel called 'Sonny' who arrived home on Saturday!
He is gorgeous, and was settling in nicely until Monday afternoon when he started with sickness and dioreah, and was off his food, have kept him on the same food as the breeder had been giving him (Royal Cannin).
He has been really quiet and lethargic, not wanting to play, just really sleepy.
He perked up a bit yesterday, and started eating just a little. He was still really quiet and sleepy, this morning.
Took him to the vets this afternoon, because I was really worried, and they have kept him in, and put him on a drip to rehydrate him.
Hopefully he will be home tomorrow evening, the vet said they would like to keep an eye on him for 24 hours.
I had rang the vet when Sonny first started with this, but I was advised that it was probably due to being away from his mum and brothers and sisters, and being in a new environment.
Has anyone else experienced anything like this with their new pup?
Will let you know how he is!
And try and post some pics......
Thanks, Catherine.x
