    My 5 month old Lab puppy is not eating, can you help?
    He has thrown up, had diarrhea and not eaten in 48 hours. He is energetic and seems happy. He won't eat his food or even chicken and rice!

    I would be taking him to the vet immediately, Parvo springs to mind.
    While pups and adult dogs do throw up and have loose stools from time to time, this has been going on for 2 days and needs to be seen to.

    Had to spread the rep.

    I agree with Shaz. It's time to see the vet. A dog not eating for 2 days, with loose stools is a concern.

    There's really no advice we can give you other then to see your vet.

    I also agree but you could try giving your puppy chicken wings if possible or any other food or treat your puppy might like and good luck at the vets
