No warning but this morning I noticed one wasn't right, obeyed my instinct and went to the vet.... within an hour one pup was critically ill and they didn't think he was going to make it.
Their dad was taken to the vet and supplied blood and then they had to have plasma as well.  The poor little mites are home now but one is soooo sick, could you please send him some prayers I know he is only a little pup but I love my furries so much.

Hookworm made them sick.... Kyle and I are most upset because we worm our dogs regularly but apparently it wasn't enough, we have to treat the WHOLE area which may mean laying down salt and lime.  I have to ask the vet in the morning about Nemacise (hookworms are nematodes) so we maybe able to kill them this way.
They seem to be brighter and the worst one is eating a little now (it is past midnight here) so fingers crossed.

Bronwen,
     At least you know what to do now and how to treat it.  Poor puppies - what a nasty shock to their tiny bodies.  Hope you can get it under control!

                                                 hugs,

                                                 Brenda

Thank goodness you were able to get a fast diagnosis.  Bleah, I hate worms!  Have spent so much of my life fighting the icky things attacking my animals.  Its awful how fast they can harm a little one.  Fingers crossed the little guys feel better sooooon
