she was vaccinated for parvo a month and half ago- i am feeding her petegree comida cachorro (puppy). but valpo, chile is not exactly spotless. at this point she is just really really sick. the vet said that it just has to pass and make sure she drinks lots, and call if it gets worse, but really she is better than yesterday, but that is not saying much.
the vaccine was a month and a half ago. i am feeding her petegree comida cachorro (puppy), but we are in valpo, chile and it is not exactly spotless AND there are tons of street dogs. at this point she is just really really sick. the vet says that it just has to pass and as long as she drinks lots...and to call if it gets worse.
You need to go to the vet yesterday.
It may just be Giardia, which is something you can catch also. In which case it may not be life threatening if treated. But if you let anything go for too long it can kill the pup.
To let the dog sit around sick for days, you deserve to feel the same was she does. Hopefully it will make you realise what she's going through.
Get her to a vet!

I would get her to the vet ASAP and get a new vet ASAP! An illness such as the one you are describing needs medical attention right away. Waiting for it to "pass" just puts her at higher risk for not making it. I also suspect giardia or cryptosporidium etc. Dogs can die from dehydration alone and if they have severe diarrhea, it doesn't matter how much they drink, because they just loose it out the other end!
