    I think a trip to the vet would be a first priority instead of coming on line and ASKING!!

    You may have found it rude, if it had been a face to face question, it would have been more then rude, but I can't understand why your first immediate choice would not have been the vet if it was a sick puppy involved. We can't diagnose, so why would you waste time?

    Yes, absolutely, all of that, rude, no good but the bottom line is, over the years I have not been absolutely flush with cash but when my dog gets sick and I haven't got a solution, then its off to the vet I go, even if it has to be expensive dead of night emergency care. I have even cleaned a vets surgery (talk about a yuck factor) for a week to pay once upon a time.

    Another bottom line, is, my sincere apologies if I offended you, sick puppies always get the best of me ! There are just so many ways pups can get sick nowadays, parvovirus, heartworm, whatever. None of them pleasant for a small animal.
