when 5 week old puppies don't eat.. something is wrong.. not the diet - even if they have been wormed, they can still have worms, even if they are on Albon and stools are fine, they can still have coccidia or giardia - sometimes the doses need to be increased.. stool samples need to be examined microscopically to determine the cause, but there is one, that's for sure.. 5 week old puppies that won't eat are not normal..and just giving antibiotics without knowing what is being treated is counter productive and can be harmful - i.e make things worse..
