Not Active & Having Food
New 40 days old Shih Tzu not eating food or being active post deworming dosage last night.
3-4 times the motion happened and not eating food. We are trying to feed the girl puppy via syringes with a small quantity of Cerelac. I look forward to expert advice and inputs. Thank you for understanding.

It's a young pup and it's a normal behavior noticed after deworming. Deworming caused the expulsion of the worms and brings gut changes coz of which loose motions occur.
Next Steps
please do not force feed. let him be. if the motions doesn't stop and the pup doesn't start eating even after 48 hours. it's necessary that you take a consult for him.

Post deworming puppies may have increased frequency or loose stool. But not eating food is not normal. Kindly get her checked once.
