Dog won't eat since we got a new puppy
We have a 3yr old male yorkie, who we recently bought a companion for so he's not alone when we decide to start a family. The new puppy is a 9 week old female mini schnauzer. Baxter (the yorkie) has within the week of getting the puppy, has vomited 8-10 times and has the runs. He also will not eat his food. I had problems when he was a puppy of him having the severe runs when we started changing his food over. We were told at that time, to mix his food with pumpkin purée and it should help settle his stomach and it worked, so we did that again last night. So far, so good for today. But he still won't eat, he would only lick the pumpkin purée off a spoon to at least get it in his system. Does this seem normal when a new puppy comes into the picture? We got a female because yorkie's are a very dominant alpha type dog and we thought the transition would be easier, but I'm very worried that he won't eat... any ideas?
