    thank you so much! but she isn’t really moving around. she’s just lying there. the veternarian gave her IV fluids and said it should ware off in about 8 hours. will the fluids help with her recovery?

  2. mary toren

    Yes, fluids will help. Provide room temperature water, not cold. Good luck.

    please get him to the vet today.  refusing to eat is BAD.

    Thank you for your help
    He has already had a hair ball two days ago, his sick has been just food, no blood and no blood in his stool
    I was trying him on some new food, chicken with pate from whiskers. I’m hoping it’s just to rich for him

    whiskas isn’t all that rich. i would be willing to bet it’s something else. take him to the vet.

    i would be concerned about her thyroid, depending on age and breed.  when was her last bloodwork?

  2. Ashley Connor

    She is roughly 9-10 yrs old and sorry but what do u mean by bloodwork

  3. Anonymous

    i mean your vet takes blood from your dog (this should be done annually) and screened for any abnormalities which would indicate illness.

    if you haven’t had this done in the past 6 months, i’d get it done today.

  4. Ashley Connor

    She also has a little diarreah.I am taking her to vets tomorrow but would like an idea of what to expect it to be.

  5. Anonymous

    my concern was mentioned in my first comment. this sounds like hypothyroid. asuming that’s what it is, it can be managed with drugs. but a senior blood panel is a necessary annual thing.

    Thank you for your help much appreciated

    Hello,
    It sounds like your dog is vomiting bile. Sometimes if a dog hasn’t eaten in awhile the bile can irritate the stomach and then they vomit. How long does your dog go between meals? If your dog only eats once a day, try doing twice per day…or even three times per day if possible. Use the same daily amount of food, just divide it up into more than one feeding.

     Of course, it could be other things that can cause this, but this would be my first thought.

    Can you take her in and have the vet or technician so you how to wrap it? Or use a t-shirt/dressing to cover it safely.

  2. PK Dennis

    How could just wrapping this be the answer?  Looks like it needs a major repair!

  3. amy meggs

    Oh we already went to the vet cost 200 for him to stay all weekend and they gave him antibiotics they wrapednit but it didn’t last half day they want 25 bucks just to rewrap it I don’t have the money for that and its in a place where it wont stay either

Yes she had a X-ray and said it was Brocken but I have had dogs all my life and could see that the dogs leg was not out of place and she was running on all fours so can you tell me how the dog could run and jump with no sign of pain

    I have seen animals run around and act normal after their leg is splinted. Can’t say that I have ever seen a dog run around with a fractured leg and not limp or hold the leg up. Even dogs with toe fractures hold their legs up.
