4 month puppy

18 15:15:56

Question
My 4 month puppy is usually very active and playful, but today he is barely eating, sleeping all day and not even wanting to go outside for a walk(very unlike him!)He also got sick yesturday morning but was fine after that until this morning, I'm not sure if those are related or not or if this is something that is serious and I need to take him to an after-hours place?

Answer
Hi Alison, I would take him into the vet tomorrow.  He may have a virus or even worms.... Give him some cottage cheese tonight or some canned pumpkin - just a small amount to get something in his belly.

Good luck!
