All areas usually have a 24 hour emergency vet clinic. Call your vet and there machine will probably give you a number to one. If not call another vet. Eventially one should have a message with emergency care numbers.

Now that she's had shots and will be worm free, I'm sure you'll see her put on some weight in the right way. I've known some people think a round little belly is a fat puppy. Ususlly it means a belly full of worms.
Soon you can begin teaching her, and she'll actually learn! Won't that be fun? Just remember to take precautions against parvo even if she's been and still getting immunized against it. Rotties, Dobies and black and tan Coon hounds are particularly succeptable. My vet said they cam come accross infected feces as much as a year or more later and get parvo. It will kill a pup under 6 months, and is even pretty bad after that age as well.
Talk to your vet. :)
Enjoy Shelby as she grows! :D

Glad all worked out fine. I got persistent about the vet trip because if worms are bad enough they are coming up live in throw up you have one infested little gal!!

I'm assuming the vet did a fecal and that the pup is clear of coccidia too. I'm surprised they vaccinated the pup that was so infested. Some vets prefer to Waite till they have a clear bill of health. But I'm glad you got in and are getting those worms taken care of. Worms can be more dangerous then people think when they are left to long.

Good luck and start reading and learning now, pups are tons of work and especially in a working dog group. Your gonna have fun.....:D
