Question
My step mother recently purchased a six week old bulldog puppy, that now has an upper respirator infection that has spread to the lungs. I was wondering if there is anything we can do other than give it shots and antibiotics. A quick reply would be most appreciated.

Answer
Hi Anna, So sorry the puppy is sick.  Make sure the Vet gives her some antibiotics and a albuterol breathing treatment.  We can also place this baby on some supplements to strengthen the immune system.  What has the Vet done so far?  Is this pup able to keep fluids down?
Would you like me to refer you to some Natural supplements?
