when i got her they told me she had a cold and they gave me medicine for it. i went to the vet they sent me to last tusday and he gave me another medicine and she's still not better and on top of that she just threw up twice. i'm scared. i tried to call them for an appointment but i guess they already went home.

THere's a 24 hour Animal ER in Coram on Middle Country Road, called Animal Emergency Service, 698-2225. My FI refers his clients there after hours.

I'm not really sure what your puppy's symptoms are, but if he's vomiting he could have ate something, ie. foreign object (my FI sees it ALL THE TIME in Puppies!) which could kill him if it isn't removed asap.

I am sorry if I am getting you worried, but my FI has told me so many horror stories that could've been avoided if the animals were checked out sooner than later.

I hope your puppy is doing better, and please let me know what happens.

Re: my puppy is sick

maybe she ate something bad
that happens to my dogs, they throw up b/c they eat grass or something then they are fine

May I ask where you got her from? I had the same problem when I got my puppy...just curious if you got her the same place. And what kind of dog is it?

Re: my puppy is sick

Yep, totally. I fought with them becuase we had her home for a week, she was getting used to us and her new surroundings, was working on house training her, and then she gets uprooted again to a hospital, living in a cage! I was so upset. She was in the Coram Animal Hospital for almost a week, and then I had to transfer her to West Hills Animal Hospital in Huntington for almost 2 weeks!!
