our 10 year old Puggle is sick
our 10 year old Puggle is sick, seems bloated, just not well. I have been for the past three days due to an infection been (per the vets recommendation) putting his antibiotic pill in small piece of bread with some chuncky peanutbutter on it two times per day. Being Sunday the closest vet is 30 min. away and $125.00 to just walk into the door. Is there anything we can do until he can be seen in the morning.
Please help...

Antibiotics on the whole may treat the issue prescribed for but can also make an animal sluggish as side effect. It has been 3 days. Usually antibiotics are given over a week to 10 days and have to run course and exit system. However, you should call the vet and relay this info to see what they think.
Even if it costs you a second opinion may help your pet if your regular vet hasn't helped. Take your dog to where they really know their stuff. An emergency pet hospital will have seasoned experts on staff and will be able to figure out what is up better than a regular vet.
