Hi there! Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Sorry to hear that Rocky has not been feeling well. The clinical symptoms you describe could be associated with concerning diseases such as parvovirus or severe intestinal worms in puppies. For that reason, I recommend that you have Rocky evaluated by your veterinarian for further assessment and treatment. These diseases are easily tested and usually you will find out relatively quickly. At the very least, they can start medications for diarrhea and anorexia to make him feel better. In the meantime, keep water available at all times to try to prevent dehydration. Best of luck with your boy. Really hoping for a speedy recovery!
