I'm so sorry to hear about your puppy. Losing a pet can be truly heart-wrenching, especially when it happens unexpectedly. While it's hard to pinpoint exactly what happened without more details, there are a few common causes that might have contributed.
Puppies are prone to certain conditions like infectious diseases (such as Parvovirus), congenital issues, or even accidental poisoning. Sometimes, puppies can also succumb to severe dehydration or hypoglycemia, which can happen very quickly if they’re not eating or drinking enough.
At home, it’s important to create a safe environment by ensuring harmful substances are out of reach. Proper nutrition and regular vet check-ups can help catch potential issues early on.
In future, signs to watch for in puppies that may indicate a serious issue include persistent vomiting or diarrhea, lethargy, refusal to eat or drink, difficulty breathing, or seizures. If you notice any of these, it’s crucial to seek veterinary attention immediately.
I know this is a confusing and difficult time, and it might help to have a professional review the specific symptoms and circumstances to shed light on what could have occurred. Please consider booking a video consultation with one of our vets on Dial A Vet. They'll be able to offer more personalized insights and support.

Real questions, vet reviewed answers and quality care.
It was so easy, I needed some eye drops for my dog and thinking about going to the vet on a weekend made me nervous about the cost involved. Dial A Vet was a much simpler, cheaper option with faster results. Within 10 minutes of the call, I had the medicine I needed for my dog without an expensive consultation.
A great fast efficient service with a qualified vet who was lovely and helpful. Thank you Samantha. I was able to sort my dog at 6pm on a Sunday night for $49 - amazing. Highly recommend.

What an amazing service, at my wits end as I knew my beautiful dog had an ear infection, could not get into the vet for 4 days. Never knew there was vets online until I googled. Within 15 minutes on a Sunday I was taking to beautiful Samantha who diagnosed and treated our Jasper. Only $49. She trusted that we knew our boy and gave us lots of advice. I will definitely be using dial a vet every time and sharing with all my friends and family. Absolutely fantastic kind caring service. 11/10
