4 month old pitbull puppy not eating

by Linda
(Elk Grove California)

My puppy stopped eating yesterday and is lethargic, he wouldn't drink either and had foam so I force fed him liquids, pedialyte and gatorade.

He started drinking water only to throw it up again but now he has worms coming out when he vomits and he had bloody diarhea last night one....is it parvo or something else?




Hi Linda
I'm afraid it's impossible for me to say whether its' Parvo or some other illness that's causing your pups' problems.

BUT it sounds as though it could well be Parvo, and Pitbulls are especially vulnerable to that virus. You need to get your pup immediate veterinary help if he's to recover. Bloody diarrhea and persistent vomiting are signs that something is really wrong. Without proper care he could end up in serious trouble.

Please get him to a vet right away. Best of luck, hope he pulls through.
