    I Have 2 Puppies One Is Not Eating And Has Kennel Cough And Worms The Other Is Eating Has Worms No Kennel Cough. They Are Very Skinny. Do You Think The Not Eating And Diarrhea Be Due To The Worms?

    They are from down south and came up with 45 other pups. 29 Hour ride in crates. They are active most of the time but not like normal pups. They sleep a lot.

    From what you say they have come from a puppy mill, and therefore will have been "produced" as cheaply as possible. They are, frankly, ill. Pups full of worms will not thrive - the worms are "stealing" the nutrition from the food they can manage to eat. You need to get these pups wormed now. They will need regular worming until they are adult, then just a few times per year.
    It is possible for pups to die because of an overload of worms, so do not think this will just go away.

      Thanks to all that answered my question. I took one pup (the sickest of the 2) to the vet along with a stool sample. They both have Coccidia. I wormed them and there is no more worms. I have to have 1 dog go back after the album is done as there might be something else going on. She is also on Clavamox. He said possibly Giardia. He didn't think it was Parvo. As for the 2nd pup she is much better very active and eating.
