Teddy dogs need vaccines against common canine diseases like distemper, parvovirus, and rabies, which build immunity and prevent spread.

My two-and-a-half-month-old puppy vomits and has seizures after coming home—what’s wrong?
Vomiting, lethargy and poor condition have many causes. Without vomiting and seizures it might be stress from a new environment or transport, which usually improves in days. But a newly bought pet risks infectious disease and parasites, so with persistent vomiting, diarrhea, lethargy and appetite loss, see a vet for parvovirus, distemper, coronavirus and parasite screening. Repeated seizures also warrant checking for epilepsy or distemper nerve involvement.

Common causes: acute gastroenteritis from overeating or spoiled food; infectious disease like distemper, parvovirus, or coronavirus; intestinal parasites like roundworm, hookworm, giardia; also chill, stress, organ injury, or poisoning.
