That puppy was already infested with hook worms when you bought him...when buying a pup the skin should be shiny and loose...when you pull the skin on the back of the pups neck and you let go it should snap back...if not the pup is dehydrated and probably has worms...also look at the gums...they should be pink and if they are pale then the pups probably has hooks...hooks will attach to the stomach lining and suck the life blood out of the pup...they will die pretty quick if they aren't treated right away...hook worms are puppy killers...

Training dogs is not about quantity, it's more about timing, the right situations, and proper guidance...After that it's up to the dog...
