Answer 3

Well you have several issues to deal with.  First I would take the puppy to the vets for a check up.  Second, I would comprehend that the puppy is 9-weeks-old, and is crying in the living room because he is a baby.  You might consider that at this age, he should be sleeping someplace where he can see a human when he wakes up.  You might consider having him sleep on a pillow in your room with a night light on so when he wakes up at night he can see you and be reassured.  He doesn&#039;t have to sleep there forever, but like you said, he is still a baby.  He is way to little to hold his potty all night long.  You need to set a timer or alarm to wake yourself up and take him potty at night.  That may be a reason for his puking.  If they can&#039;t go potty when they need to, some puppies will puke instead.  I would take him to the vets.

here are some puppy tips, use what helps.

I use a crate* to potty train with, but only for potty training and then I break it down and store it.  I put blankets and a small food and water dish in the crate.  Dogs don&#039;t potty where they eat and sleep.  When they are first little, I only expect them to hold their potty for 4 hours, and then 6 hours, then 8 hours and so on.  So when they are first little, I set a timer or alarm clock to wake myself up at night to take them *out.  I only allow my puppy in the bedroom* or the living room, only one room at a time.  They have to graduate to more space.  If I allow them to have full run of the house, it will overwhelm them.  I take them out the same door each time.  I tie a dinner bell to the door handle.  Do not use a jingle bell as they could get their toe caught in it.  So when they are little, I ring the bell for them, and then open the door to go *outside to potty.  When they get bigger, I take their paw and whack the bell and open the door to go potty.  Eventually getting to the place where the puppy will ring the bell and let me know when they need to go potty.  Dogs want to please you, so it is your job to let them know what behaviors please you and what doesn&#039;t.  So when my puppy goes potty, I give her a treat*, and clap, and make a fuss and praise her.  So she learns that going potty outside makes me happy.  If she has an accident, make a disgust sound like “tsst”  and take her out right away.  I never yell* or spank* my puppies.  Take them out when they first wake up, after they eat or drink, before nap, finish romping, when their activities change, or when they are sniffing around. Some puppies go pee right away, but may not go p**p until 10 minutes later, so wait for the p**p.  I have a little play time here, because sometimes I think they are done, and they are not.  Puppies train at their own pace.  While I may have a puppy that hasn&#039;t had an accident in several weeks, I don&#039;t let my guard down.  I don&#039;t expect my puppies to be &quot;fully potty trained&quot; until one-year-old.  If they have a setback, shake it off, and start over.  I only have my puppies in the crate when I am not watching them.  When I am sleeping, cooking, ironing, doing chores, basically when I am not watching her.  All other times, she is out of the crate practicing being a &quot;big girl.&quot;  This is the time I train her how to behave in the house.  So we are practicing &quot;no barking&quot;, &#039;no biting&quot;, &quot;no jumping&quot;, and &quot;don&#039;t eat the furniture.&quot;  I also have to practice &quot;playing inside&quot; so she doesn&#039;t knock over things.  You must keep the puppy in sight when they are little because they don’t know the difference between newspaper and carpet, and you don’t want them sneaking off and getting into trouble.   Some puppies can sleep through the night around 3-months-old, but their bladder is grown around 6-months-old.



REVISIONS:



*I use a crate to train with.  It is the method I prefer, compared to other methods I have tried.  I noticed that if they are in the crate, while I am doing chores, they are o.k., because the crate allows them to see me and be re-assured.  The crate can also be a comfort when stored in the basement for dogs who live in areas where thunderstorms and tornados are an issue. .  However, use the method that works best for you.....a laundry basket, a cardboard box, a woof-woof house, x-pen, child gates, whatever works for you.



*Outside, pee pad, litter box, whichever method you are using.   When the puppy is first little, keep the pee pad, litter box near the food and water dish, so the puppy can eat and drink, and then go potty.  You can move it away as they get older.  The pee pad has a scent that smells and initiates potty.  Sometimes a pee pad makes a sound that scares some puppies, so you might want to use a litter box if that happens.  The pee pad allows a puppy to walk around, but a litter box keeps the puppy in one place.

*Bedrooms, I use the bedroom and living room for training, because it works for me.  Choose rooms that work for you, but watch for rooms that are damp, or drafty.  While my puppies sleep in the bedroom during training, on

I&#039;m sorry.  Would you please retype this so I can understand it?

Answer 5

It&#039;s hard to say when it comes to puppies, but you do have to be careful of Parvo, a known diseases that causes death if not treated properly and highly contagious to other dogs.  It all depends, did he get into something - they always do, or did he catch something?  Is he up to date on his shots?  His immune system wont be 100% until hes about a year old.  Also dogs can&#039;t process a lot of foods.

Try to measure this all by noting if he&#039;s eating, thowing up (what? yellow bile or food or parts of toys, etc), if he&#039;s peeing and pooing as he regularly did (color, solid or not, diarrhea, etc.), pay attention to his energy level (if he has any or seems lethargic and doesn&#039;t want to do what he normally does), and if you notice any limping or favoring any side of the body more than normal in case of a possible injury. You really have to rewind and look all over the house to see if there is anything he could have gotten into and if that&#039;s poisonous for dogs. If there is way too many things going on that lead to other than the normal behavior for your pup, I would be worried.  If all he&#039;s done is throw up and it&#039;s food he&#039;s thrown up and he doesn&#039;t have any of the other symptoms I mentioned, I&#039;d just give him a lot of TLC and reduce the stress by letting him sleep in your room (FOR NOW) with you and evaluate what you&#039;re feeding him - maybe he just ate too much or you&#039;re not feeding him properly.

Answer 6

It is not normally for a puppy to threw up his dinner. Best to take him to the vets.Puppies immues systems are easy to get illness.

Dogs are actually Omnivorous.they need alot less meat protein then cats, ferrets or snakes &amp; feeding a high animal protein diet to a dog will take a toll on the dog&#039;s health.a dog is designed to to digest a wide range of plant and animal products.Dog&#039;s must eat more then muscle meat.they need plenty of carboyhdrates &amp;fibre from vegetable matter and only a very small amount of fat.there protein can come from both plant and animal products.the other things to consider are sources of mineral such as calcium, phosphorous and of cause vitamins.

Dogs are they Carnivores? Are they really like wolves, hyenas, jackals? or Are they more like us? Is it foolish to feed them only meat? Should they be fed what there human family eats? The Truth encompasses a little of each.

In the wild, other hunting animal that seem similar to dogs, such as Wolves, hyenas eat fruit,leaves,grasses,dig for roots and even obtain vegetable matter from the stomach of their prey.&quot;

Cooked grains are nearly 100% digestible for dogs. There really isn&#039;t a

lot of question about this based on the results of feeding studies. I am not

sure why people come to the conclusion that grains are not good for

dogs.
