Hi,
I am a puppy mommy for the first time. Gina, my puppy, was given to me as a gift when she was just 4 weeks old. She is now just 5 months and a little over 50 lbs. Over the w/e, I took Gina to the vet b/c she had vomitted on Thursday, and then was lifeless the whole day Friday. She just laid there, sometimes she would look at me, others, just stare and fall off to sleep. The vet said she had 104.5 temp (what is normal dog temp?), he put her on an IV, gave her a shot of anti-biotic and sent me home with 7days of Clavamox 250mg. He also gave a call once her blood was analyzed and said that her white blood cell count was very high, she is possibly anemic. So far, the food recall doesn't have anything to do with the infection. Her treats and food (Beneful Puppy/Purina) are not on the re-call list, and she only eats dry food. The discussion came up with my friend (who is the owner of a 8 month old Yorkie) that I should be giving Gina wet food in addition to the dry food. My vet hasn't suggested anything like that. Right now, she is eating boiled chicken & white rice mixed with a little purina puppy chow, any advice on what to feed my pup (once she is feeling 100%)?
