Hi can you please help. My 3 month old puppy is currently recovering from parvo. He is now eating bit by bit but still keeps throwing up. May i know what food can we give him or if you can suggest any medication? He is currently taking metronidazole thru iv line.

Poor Song! Ask your veterinarian about a medication called Cerenia which is great to stop vomiting. Feeding him a bland diet like Royal Canin Gastrointestinal High Energy Puppy or Hill Science Diet I/D can also be easier to digest. I hope he continues to recover well.
