Just looking for some input from folks who may have had a similar experience. Thanks, Chris I did not give antibiotics to the puppies when I had it. I did give Childrens cough syrup to one of them that was the worst. But for the rest it was simply keeping them warm and making sure they were eating well and gaining weight. Keep a close on eye on their nursing. If there is ANY sign of aspiration call the vet immediately, as they may want to give them antibiotics to prevent pneumonia.
