Thank you for submitting your question regarding Cookie. I am happy to here that she is recovering. Feed her a high quality puppy food and she will start to gain weight as she recovers from the virus. Feed her three times per day and offer plenty of fresh water. Puppies at her age should play hard and then nap. They will repeat this cycle throughout the day. Her energy may still be low from the infection, but it sounds like she is recovering well. You are very fortunate. I hope this information helps!
