Hello, my 2 month old puppy doesn’t want to eat or drink water. It’s been about 6 hours and she doesn’t want to get of their bed... she threw up but no diarrhea. About almost a week ago she got her second set of shots

Thank you for submitting your question regarding Lexie. I recommend trying to rub some karo syrup on her gums in case hee blood sugar has dropped. If she does not perk up and start eating, then she should see a veterinarian tonight. Young puppies can become very sick quickly. I hope this information helps!
