Anna K Krista, thank you for your advice! Today I gave him breakfast (puppy food with warm water and a bit of oatmeal – syringe), 2nd breakfast (the same, but he vomitted it as he didn’t feel good in the afternoon), home made chicken soup with celery and carrots – syringe – couple of times during the day because he felt nauseated and he ate small portions (1 small syringe at a time, next in 15 – 20 minutes, sometimes 2 syringes at a time). When he smelled our dinner all of the sudden he jumped out of the bed and ate some chicken (boiled), not much, but it was his initiative. He played with our lab, played with his stuffed chicken and went to bed. Now I’m waking him every half our and I give him blended rice with egg yolk, chicken and warm water.
Laura, unfortunately no because our vet told me that he’s gonna die. And I’m not giving up on him.

Jana If it was me, I’d see a vet immediately. Particularly with sudden onset like this, I’d suspect some scary cause such as neurological problem, spinal problem, infection, toxin … I wouldn’t wait.
