Question
Hi Ma'am, I just want to confirm the true illness of my puppy.Im really confuse bout it.  One day, I noticed that she dont want to eat anything in her dog food tray, even if I tried to put evrything that she enjoyed eating before (meats, soup, vegetables, even milk).She also dont drink water after the whole day. I thought it was just she didnt like the food but after 1 day, in the morning, I carried her and noticed a "2 piece boil like wound"in her tummy. Its like a size of a "nips/ peanuts". My mom thought it was a boil and it is the cause why my puppy got weak in the prior day. She also loses her balance when she stood up.She turns very weak.Im so sad bout it. Can you tell me what is the disease? Is it really serious? I really want to know. Im so worried. I dont wana lose my dog. Could you advise any treatment?
(Note: my puppy is just  3-4 months old,shes playful, she eats a lot just before this illness occur) Hope you can give me fast answer. I really need it right away. I didnt take to see my dog that way. ;-(

Answer
You need to take your dog t a veterinarian RIGHT AWAY. This is not a nutritional question. Your dog needs veterinary care. PLEASE take her right away. I wish you all the best, but do not let her suffer. Go right away. If this is not possible, email me at catlane@thepossiblecanine.com, asap.
