We took Lela to the vet this morning as she had diorreah last night and this morning and we found some blood.  She was dehydrated so they have kept her in and put her on a drip. She will be there overnight.

We are so worried and upset.  The vet does not know what is wrong until they do some tests. We have been so careful not to let her eat anything in the garden.  She had an upset tummy when she came home from the breeder and we fed her on chicken and rice and gave her kaolin and she was fine, that was a week ago. Then suddenly she took a turn for the worse last night.  Just phoned the vet and she said she is very 'flat'. 

Any ideas what could be wrong??  We are beside ourselves with worry. She has only been her a week, but is already a part of the family. We love her to bits.

What a worry for you  :bigarmhug: .Sending lots of positive thoughts to little Lela  :luv:

When they're so young they can get dehydrated very quickly if they have diarrhoea, so you were absoutely right to take her to the vet this morning. Hopefully it's just a normal tummy bug and the drip and the overnight stay at the vet surgery will put things right.

Sorry to hear that Lela is poorly. She is in the right place though, puppies dehydrate very quickly and its important that they get the necessary fluids. I know its such a worry when they are so little and they are poorly.

Sending you healing  :bigarmhug: and hopefully she will be back with you soon.  :luv:

I'm so sorry to hear little Lela isn't well. Massive healing thoughts coming her way.  :bigarmhug: My little black bitch was pretty poorly not long after she came home and had to stay at the vets on a drip, but soon came home and was as good as new in no time. Really hope it's the same for your little one. Sometimes there tums can get a bit upset from all the changes. Really hope she's better very soon. :-*

So sorry Lela is not well.  We had a similar situation with our lab when we first got her.  She was with us 5 days before she was admitted with a bad tummy bug.  She was on a drip and kept in for about 4 days until they were happy that she was fully hydrated, had a normal poo and put a little weight on.  She is now 2 and a big, strong, frisbee chasing nutter!   :005:

Hope Lela soon begins to pick up and is back with her new family where she belongs  :luv:
