HI! have your veterinary to check your puppy for pneumonia! My puppy had that when she was 3-4 months and had the same sympthoms, wery skinny always hungry and thirsty, no worms and eating it's diarrhoea..
After 10 days of antibiotics she became more and more normal weight and now she is healthy and happy again.

I took him top the vet again this morning to give him a shot of B12 vitamin. He ruled out the Herpes issue. It seesm however that he is getting better. Since last Monday he put on 1,5kg and he weighs now 15.5kg. His stool is mixed , half shaped but soft and half like diarhea. With regards to the kennel, the breeder informed that there is nothing wiht the other dogs and puppies. All of them are very healthy. I belive him since he has been very cooperative up to now. The problem is that even if he is sick i do not wish to give him back. I am attached already to him and i want to fight this together. The vet told me that hos treatmetn at the moment is a mild one just in case it is something simple. If he does not get better or completely healthy within the next 2 weeks then he will proceed with strong antibiotics which will mean that he has either SIBO or inflamatory bowel disease. He dewormed him again today and agreed on deworming him for the next 2 motnhs every 2 weeks. I noticed a good sign today. When he did his stool he did not turn around to eat it. SO i have the feeling that we are progressing..

Thank you all for your help.

Nicholas

Sure. And what other fairy tales you have been told? If the puppy had diarrhoea from the first day you got him, it came with it. Which means, it was already dispatched sick. Which means the other puppies are probably also sick etc.

Of course he was. He made quite some money on you, did not he.

Unfortunatelly, this is what the breeder counts on. He sells you sick puppy for a price of healthy one, tells you in the kennel is everything all right and it´s your problem. And there you go spending load of money for the vet making the puppy fine again.

This is something people like Rona were warning you against, when you were asking about how to get puppy sent to your doorstep. This is the price for such delivery service.

Anyways, I wish you that the puppy will make it and get healthy and in shape soon. You are obviously on a good way.

Mirka for your information ( and because you still sound hosyile) let me just tell you that the vet contacted the kennels vet as well as the kennel clusb of that country. He told me that there was no way that the breeder could have known and it is not an inhereted disease or condition.
