I'm really sorry to hear that your puppy is feeling unwell. Given her symptoms of bloody diarrhea, vomiting, lethargy, and loss of appetite, it's crucial to take this seriously. These symptoms can indicate several potential issues, such as infections (like parvovirus), parasites, ingestion of toxins, or other gastrointestinal problems.
While you arrange for veterinary care, there are a few steps you can take at home to help her:
Firstly, ensure she stays hydrated. Offer her small amounts of water frequently, as dehydration can be a significant concern with diarrhea and vomiting.
Since she has already eaten some pumpkin, you can continue offering small amounts of plain, canned pumpkin (not the spiced pie filling) as it can help with diarrhea. However, avoid giving her any other food until you consult with a vet.
Allow her to rest in a comfortable, quiet place. Minimizing her activity will help her conserve energy.
Keep a close eye on her symptoms. Note any changes in her behavior, the frequency and appearance of diarrhea and vomiting, and her water intake.
Given the severity of her symptoms and the presence of bloody diarrhea, I strongly recommend seeking immediate veterinary care. Puppies can deteriorate quickly, and it's essential to get a professional evaluation to determine the underlying cause and appropriate treatment.
If you have any further questions, please feel free to ask. Thank you.
