sick puppy

my puppy has not ate in 2 days and will not drink anything either, his stool is loose and looks like clear to yellowish mucus when he does go.

He has green snot coming out of his nose, he is very weak and will not move around..i am taking him to the vet first thing in the morning if they are open tomorrow..do you have any ideas what this may be?





Hi
I'm afraid this sounds serious, it could be one of several very contagious such as Parvo, Kennel Cough, Distemper and others.

Young puppies get dehydrated very quickly and if he's not eating or drinking this is a very real possibility. Dehydration alone can kill a young puppy.

Your vet is the only person who can make an accurate diagnosis I'm afraid, and hopefully he will be able to treat your puppy successfully.

I wish you the best of luck and hope that he is doing better soon.
