I am so sorry to hear that Sweety isn’t feeling well. Certainly bacterial infectionor a parasitic infection could be possible. However I would most concerned about a problem called intussusception which is a serious problem where the intestines telescope on themselves and cause an obstruction. This can happen after a parvovirus infection. I would highly encourage you to have him evaluated by a veterinarian immediately. Best of luck and I hope he improves soon. Thank you for using Pet Coach.
