Got a 50 day old toy poodle last evening. We are first time pet parents. He was the last of his litter. While Viggo has been playing and teething, and also sleeping, he isn’t really eating the cerelac. Nor is he actively drinking water. We were told this is separation anxiety and settling into new surroundings. Am I overly worried or is this normal for a pup?

It’s normal but if he continues to do the same for more than a day take him to the vet

Hi Jaishankar. It’s normal for a pup to go into separation anxiety once separated from mother and litter. To overcome this, please provide engaging toys to keep him occupied especially puzzle toys containing treats. See that adequate exercise is provided to make him tired before left alone. If you are using human cerelac, stop it but gradually introduce puppy cerelac or dry kibbles(soaked in warm water).

Am happy to say that Viggo is eating better and drinking water also. He is quite active post food and playing with a couple of toys. Thank you community for the support (and to Dr. Tajunnisa).

My dog has undergone few blood tests and the doctor has prescribed a few medicines which I'm attaching below. His haemoglobin is very low and the infection that he had got from a recent dog bite has improved a lot but is not getting cured. What should I do?
