sickness
Some advice please , we have all been ill with a flu/tummy bug the past week and now little Louie our 5month old pup has been sick 3 times this morning and is shaking and pacing around, do you think he could of caught the bug? He is teething at the moment as well. What do you think I should give him to eat ? All advice welcome as this is our first dog, thanks

Re: sickness
If he's tummy is upset, try giving him small amounts of boiled chicken and rice (just bland). This usually binds their tummies.
Just watch him though, pups can dehydrate very quickly, so just make sure he drinks enough water.

As he's only a pup if you're worried a quick trip to the vet might be in order to settle your mind

I think I'd watch him and make sure he's drinking and peeing enough. If peeing less than usual definitely bring him to the vet, or if he has a fever (At least this is what I've been told).

They can't catch what we have (well I am pretty sure they can't), how is he getting on now? And I hope your feeling better soon Xx
