Cocoa is a great name! What vitamins and nutritional supplements is she getting? If you think she's 4 weeks old, that's really young to be weaned and away from her mom, even with less than ideal conditions.
One of the best organic puppy kibbles mixed with water and microwaved to warm then a 1/2 tspn of doggy milk powder mixed in and left for 5 minutes to soften... she absolutely laps it up like she's starving but that's breakfest, a few more similar meals minus the milk throughout the rest of the day and a few cooked green beans mixed in for dinner is helping!
Her staple puppy chow is exceptionally nutritious/organic/hollistic so I'm hoping for the best! Also an oatmeal flee, tick, larvae etc bath was given today to make sure cleanliness is 100%!
She's adorable, but looks way too young to be away from her mother. You might want to check into formulas that you should be feeding her to make sure she gets all the proper nutrients. I think Pacu Mom is a vet, she might be worth asking for advice.
Yea she's on a formula of puppy milk mixed with warm and moist puppy kibbles in the AM.
It sounds like you rescued a tiny puppy from awful conditions and I'm sure you're going to do everything you can to help her get well
Kudos to you!

Thanks LS! I noticed they were sleeping in the garage and her being the smallest was likely to passive or weak to not eat enough food
she's a cutie.
looks wormie. get her on an ideal puppy diet & she should flourish.
Yea they say like 95% of pups have some kind of worm hence 'puppy breath!'
Pacu Mom is a dental tech, not vet ;-) (unless she has a 2nd vocation which I am unaware of)
I could use a dental tech too!
Its hard to leave her alone due to her emancipation and unknown parasites or worse (god no!) So playing, eating and potty are #1! Right now this is a full time job but zero complaints! Appt at VET tomorrow, praying for just a check up and shots! Pray nothing is serious, I have the means to take of her if she's sick but I may not have the means to take care of my other pets and myself if it came down to it but no question its the animals first. I can take weekly showers and eat cheap if need be!
Let you guys know results tomorrow evening! BTW as I was leaving the 'breeders/owners' gave me a can of OLD ROY canned food, saying that's what they eat..... :/
