What are some options to feed my pup she is 4 months old and diagnosed with parvo on Friday. She is doing better but she started snubbing the cottage cheese with chicken baby food in it. I was mixing pedialyte with it to help keep her hydrated as she doesn’t drink enough just on her own? I was doing about 5 tablespoons of food with half a cup of pedialyte every three hours but were pushing six now that she doesn’t want to eat. She is 23 pounds and I did take her to the vet she has meds.

Just regular canned puppy food would be fine. She may not like what you are feeding. Just getting some calories in her is important. If she is drinking on her own or eating canned food well, then you can stop with the Pedialyte - some dogs really don't like the taste. If she won't eat the canned puppy food (which would be best) you can try bland human foods like: *plain white rice *scrambled eggs * boiled chicken breast * plain pasta No butter, oil or spices on the food.
