My puppy has normal temp, lethargic, and not eating. Should I worry?

Question

I took the temperature reading of both Kronos (my puppy Rottweiler) and Stephanie (my adult Rottweiler) and they both read exactly 37.3°C (99.140F) on the two readings each of them both. Exactly the same temperature twice each for them both. I thought the thermometer was broken and tried to read something else and got a different reading for the other thing. Kronos (puppy) seems lethargic with loss of appetite, but Stephanie (Adult) is very very agile and active. Should I be worried?

Those are normal temperatures for dogs. If the puppy is lethargic and not eating then he needs to visit a vet. I would be worried that he could have a viral disease like parvovirus. I do think you should be a bit worried about him.
