Pet's info: Dog | Dachshund (Miniature Smooth Haired) | Female | unspayed | 2 months and 29 days old | 3.5 lbs
I’m on day 4 of my vacation with my 11 week old puppy. At home, she was fine, a full of energy puppy. Since we arrived, she has constantly slept and cried, she will barely eat or drink. The only method I’ve found that works is diluting her wet food with a lot of water, and even then, she cries when she eats. She hasn’t pooped, but tries. She pees constantly, 2-3 times in a row, sometimes it looks like incontentence. It’s like she’s in pain the way she always cries, it’s breaking my heart.

I am so sorry to hear about your puppy! With these symptoms I would recommend finding a vet in the area to examine her. I would be concerned she could have a urinary tract infection or be suffering from constipation. If you have any canned pumpkin you can give her a teaspoon or two added to her food to try to help if it is constipation, but it sounds like she needs to see the vet for an exam!
