Please Help! My Lhasa Puppy Has Been Acting Lethargic And Is Not Eating by Kemmiiee(op): 6:42pm On Apr 06, 2020
So I’m a first time dog owner and my Lhasa apso puppy (female) who is 8 weeks old and is always so happy and vibrant has been acting slow suddenly and isn’t eating well, not even her favorite foods that she’s always so excited to eat. She also won’t play with her favorite toys. She has also been digging the walls and eating rocks and also sniffing them. I always take her away and give her her food and toys but she’s just not interested in them.

Also noticed that her stool is black. She has been eating mostly pedigree puppy lamb and rice mixed with spaghetti. Also egg sauce, boiled egg, milk and biscuit (mashed), fish, vegetables like cucumber and tomatoes.

Due to the lockdown, I can’t visit a vet. I called my uncle who’s a vet and he thought it might be that she needs deworming. I plan to get the deworming meds tomorrow.

What could be the reason? I’m extremely sad and worried that she’s not herself.

Please HELP!!

If she has been eating rocks then am afraid worms are not the problem. She might have ingested a foreign object that has refused to pass. Is her poop scanty and hard? U need a vet for surgery.
