My 2-month puppy, two vaccines, crate-kept; lively, eating, and pooping. A friend watched it one day (free-roam); after that it vomited, normal stools. On the 10th it vomited everything eaten, saw a vet who said indigestion, gave anti-emetic and anti-inflammatory; on the 11th still vomiting, went again.
The report shows positive canine coronavirus antigen, high white cells/neutrophils, high CRP (clear inflammation), plus kidney injury, dehydration, and electrolyte imbalance. Vomiting is likely from coronavirus; treat the primary disease antivirally, correct fluids/electrolytes, antibiotics, and anti-emetics. Follow the vet closely.
