Re: Small Black Dog being sick Sick once last night. Rolled over for a tummy rub just now so hope that's a good sign.
Re: Small Black Dog being sick Just waiting to make appointment at vet. Really bad exploding rear end and still being sick. Probably just something working its way through but for peace of mind ......
Re: Small Black Dog being sick Just got back from vet's. Most likely just eaten something really bad. No temperature and although stomach a bit tight not in any pain. Could be blockage. Least likely pancreatitis. Had an anti-biotic injection, an anti-inflamatory and an anti-emetic. Last one quite painful poor lamb - very brave. Got to see a marked improvement from midday onwardsor take her straight back within 24 hours. I think I can see an improvement already - she's just gone to sleep sitting up and looks much more relaxed and natural.
Re: Small Black Dog being sick Hopefully that will put her right. Sleep is good, it's tiring being poorly.
Re: Small Black Dog being sick She is sleeping peacefully now. First proper sleep for 24 hours. Fingers crossed.
Re: Small Black Dog being sick I wonder when I can try her on a little bit of food. I got some cans of special gentle diet stuff at the vet this morning. The stuff they give dog's after an operation and easily digested and thought a good idea to have a few cans on the shelf for situations such as this.
Re: Small Black Dog being sick Good plan. I'd try her on a tiny amount this lunchtime/afternoon after she's woken up properly of her own accord. Then if that stays down a little more for tea. Smaller more frequent meals. I have some tins of Chappie now for this kind of thing.
Re: Small Black Dog being sick Thanks. Yes good plan. She's definitely brighter - barked at the postman just now through the front window. This morning she completely ignored a man in the street with the same scenario.
Re: Small Black Dog being sick Sounds promising. Perhaps just try a tiny bit of food mixed with a bit of water to make a paste. Hope she's better soon.
