Updated On September 23rd, 2025

Pet's info: Dog | Rottweiler | Female | 3 months and 3 days old | 8.8 lbs

hi my name is Ali i brought home a Rottweiler from a breeder she is 2 and a half months old in the drive home, she vomited 2 times and i thought it was normal and the first day of her was that she was active and exploring her surroundings but I noticed she was still vomiting and her stool isnt solid so i brought her to vet she gave her meds and now she has taken the meds thru syringe but she is appearing very weak is that because of the meds or she is just nerves ?

I highly recommend bringing Smokey back to the veterinarian and have her re-evaluated. I get concerned when puppies are very weak and not really taking the medications well. Puppies can decline quickly so it is best to have a recheck as soon as possible. Thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.
