My puppy won't eat or drink and is very sleepy. Is she sick?

Question

My 12 week Boston Terrier pup has been eating and drinking water normally the last 4 days. Today, on 5th day she has had a BM in morning and urine. But she will not drink water or eat her food. When giving a treat for going potty it kept dropping out of her mouth, even with hand feeding. In the house she will not sit anywhere except my lap. I move her and she comes right back to sleep. Is she okay? Is this a growth spurt or sickness? Pet's info: Dog | Boston Terrier | Female | unspayed | 2 months and 30 days old | 6.3 lbs

Hi, I think Lola is not 100% if she is refusing to eat and just wanting to sit on your lap. I would recommend that you have her checked over as puppies are quite delicate and need to be eating regularly. She could have parasites or just a little temperature for example, it could be something quite simple but obviously that could cause her to feel poorly. Have her seen by your vet so that she can get any necessary treatment. Hope she gets better soon !
