NEED HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[DRamey]

Farwest said hookworms, sounds like it to me. Drontal Plus is the only wormer that I have found that works fast enough to save pups' lives. the tablets are divided acoording to body weight. I hope that is all it is, and not something more drastic. Good luck with them.

The 2 that are left are doing OK for now. I will be going to the vet this afternoon. I did change her back to her original dog food last night. Don't know if that had anything to do with it, may never know.

Back from the Vet.
No worms.
No coccidia.

She has a bacterial infection that transfered to the pups.
Put her on Centrine to help stop the diahrea.
Put her on Amoxicillin to kill the bacteria
Put her on Bene-bac which is sopposed to be a "good" bacteria.

Vet said that the Amoxicillin should get into her milk in 2 to 3 hours, thus treating the 2 remaining pups.

I have my fingers crossed!!!!!!!!!

Thanks for all of the advice!

On a side note, when I told her the brand of dog food I was feeding, she told me to stop feeding it immediately due to the fact that in the last 2 weeks she had had 3 hounds die from what she thinks is bad feed. She said that she had samples of the food sent of to be tested. I will not post the brand name yet, but I know a lot of people on here feed it. I will send you a PM if you want to know the brand.

Thanks again to all!!!

Thanks for letting us know what is going on. Always want to learn from others. Hope the other pups make it. Keep us informed.
Good luck!!!

I'd use amoxi on the bitch and pups. Feed the pups by hand, esbilac or goat milk. You got a two fold problem then, keeping up with the pups and keeping the bitches milk from going hard. I like valbazen for gut problems. Microbes like guardia.

Glad your getting her sit right, amoxi is good stuff. I'd give the pups a little also ...
