I just got Akeira Friday evening and she ate a little about 2 hours after we got her home. She got sick about 2 hours later and I can not get her to eat anything. She has drank some water off and on. I don't know what else to do. My vet will not be in her office until Wednesday. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated:confused:

Shepherd pups tend to be skinny little things, but she should be OK for a day or 2. If you didn't give her the same thing as the breeder was feeding, you may have upset her stomach. You could try the bland recovery diet in the ''My dog won't eat.'' section of the sticky at https://www.askmehelpdesk.com/dogs/information-articles-our-dogs-expert-labman-53153.html#post254171
Keep up the water.
You could take her temperature. Use a regular rectal thermometer. Put Vaseline on it insert 2'', wait 3 minutes and check it. If it is over 102, maybe you had better find another vet. In some cases, sick little puppies need prompt attention.
