I'll share that soon.

The vet said I should give him a thorough bath and said it was mange, before applying the lotion and cream I got. I haven't bathed for him since I brought him from my parent's place and I doubt he has bathed since he was born.
the problem majorly for hair loss is lack of grooming. The hair eventually tangles with one another, and after a while it will fall off leaving a big patch. It could also arise from skin irritation, so regular oiling with coconut oil will be good. You can also get zito oil boosters to help with good hair growth. But go with the vet's solution first.

He's doing really good. I took him for his 2nd shot today.

The Vet says he's most likely going to be am aggressive dog because he was restless and wanted to bite the vet when he was giving him his shot.
try you best to ensure that he isn't agressive but territorial. Because it tells a lot about the owner. Agressive dogs are poorly trained dogs, they don't listen to commands and they are dangerous even to it's owner.

So how do I train him not to become aggressive, the other day I put a leash on his collar and it wasn't a funny matter at all. He wasn't willing to move or go to anywhere I wanted him to, although it seemed like he wanted to pee because after I left him, that's what he did. When I put the leash back again. He wasn't having any of it.

How do I train him to listen?

I'm Glad to hear your Pup is doing fine. . The chances of puppy surviving Parvovirus is very very slim. Congratulations Bruh. Please limit where he roams about. I'll advise u get him a house. You only free him on few occasions with close monitoring. Dogs are Man Best friend I swear. Jax and Zoey taking Kinetic Energy from the scorching sun ⛅

To prevent your dog from being aggressive, you must socialize it with friends/family/children. Take him for walks regularly.
To teach him basic commands, you should start by rewarding him with a treat (meat/fish/crackers biscuits) avoid sweet biscuits and anyone with chocolate. You can start the training by telling him to sit, teach him by gently pushing his waist down. When this is achieved, give him the biscuits.
For the collar, make wearing it fun for him. Put it on him always, so he'll get used to it. Then let him understand that he can only go out with you if he has the leash on.

I stay alone so there's hardly anyone he can play with asides from me or when my family visit. I want him to complete his vaccination before I take him out for walks.

I gave him his first bath today, it wasn't a funny matter.

Is there really any fog poop that doesn't smell? undecided

Well I did notice my dogs poop changed when I started feeding it noodles.... It was always watery and greyish but his energy level is always 100 regardless, then for a day I switched back to his usual 100% meat meal and the poop came back solid.

So watery poop could be due to food type

Rocky thinking he's sleek.

His ears are now "standing" not sure if that's the word, compared to when he was a 9 weeks.

Omo that would be so sad, the poop smells moderately. Although, I suspect parvo might be the case but the vet says we should keep watching.

The puppy is very active and playful, it shows no sign of weakness except when it sleeps. In fact most of the night it parades the house and chews on anything.
why feed it with all this meals and not dog food in cans. That ur vet no Sabi anything u need to start treatment oh that's how a drunkard of a vet killed my cousin dog with such excuses oh and gave it overdose

What I normally do is, before I feed my dog, I put her in a cage, give her food and at exactly 20 minute after, I withdraw both the plate and water. I wait for another 10 minute and when I go to pick her back to my room, she has already poo. She will not poo till the following day, she walks into my room as if she pays rent self

If it’s parvo it will be vomiting as well.
It’s probably something that doesn’t agree with it’s stomach.
Stop feeding it eggs. Get some real dog chow from the vet. If you buy dog canned meat. Divide into three and feed the dog each section with white rice. Cover the can back with the tin cover and refrigerate it till next time.

For the poop, wait till the dog is stable and no longer has diarrhea then immediately start potty training it.
Each time the dog poops (solid poops), move the poop to the area you want the dog to always poop.
Let the poop stay there all day so the dog can keep sniffing the poop in that particular area.
Do this for a week and the dog should always associate that spot with poops.
It sounds gross keeping the poop there but that’s the way even dog trainers do it.
Do not beat the dog or vent out your frustration on it when it poops. Let it know in the stern voice that you’re not pleased. Then move the poop.

Have a nice day.
