While your trust and confidence in finding an answer here is flattering, please don't ever come here first looking for "immediate" ideas or answers on a health related problem. Luckily this time there was someone on who could provide some information, but that might not always be the case. Additionally with those list of symptoms and that he had been out in ice-melt; the first call should have been to your vet, not a post to an internet forum. With a puppy, often there isn't as much leeway in seeking treatment.
Keeping the fluids in him was a good idea. You might want to pick up some pedialyte (the electrolyte liquid thing for children) when you pick him up from the vet's. I've taken to keeping the powdered packets in the electrolyte formula one can add to water on a shelf in my dog medicine shelf for emergencies.
