Hi there and thanks for posting on Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Yes, you can give Pedialyte (make sure it is unflavored). You may try offering a small amount (1/8 of a cup) several times daily. Vomiting can be rapidly dehydrating in young small puppies, so it can be hard to correct dehydration alone with oral liquids. If Thanos keeps vomiting, he really should see his veterinarian. Thanks again for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.
