| Uni is acting weird! and i don't mean her "normal" weird. This started yesterday and she's been doing it off and on. She'll look scared with her ears down and walk around close to the ground really fast and then just pick a random spot and lay down, like in the middle of the floor. She lays down very straight, chin on the ground, not like when she is sleeping in a curled up little ball. Then after a few seconds she will get up really fast and go somewhere else and do the same thing, again and again. If I try to pick her up she kicks me and wants down. She did it at the shop last night and at home this morning. I don't know what is going on with her. She ate ok, but not great yesterday and today. The day before she ate A LOT, but just her kibble, but over what she usually eats. Poop and pee is normal. Anyone know what's up? I'm worried. She is napping now.

I ♥ Joey & Ralphie! Donating Member | Joey was acting weird Sunday night, there was some shaking and we went to bed early, he just couldn't get comfortable in bed and every few minutes would find a new spot; no vomiting or diarrhea, and food hadn't changed. He walked hunched over, and he was licking his mustache a lot, (I guess this can indicate nausea), but the main symptom was the moving every few minutes. We took him to the vet Monday, and he didn't know what was wrong, he said it sounded like he had pain in his stomach, and we were to continue to give him some Pepcid, 1/4 of a 10mg pill, 2 times a day. Most of his symptoms were gone by the time we got him to the vet, and by Tuesday he was fine. The vet said that some of the things that could cause this would be fire ant bites or scorpion bites, or eating something strange, we really didn't see any bites and don't know what caused it, but when you described her symptoms it reminded me a little of Joey. The Pepcid seemed to help Joey, I gave him his first dose Sunday night before I saw the vet, and it took about a hour before he seem to have some relief, but it took about 5 hours before he settled down and could sleep.

Oh then I group of teenagers came in, you know how I love teenagers They were standing around towards the back of the shop and when they left I saw a wad of green chewed up gum on the ground and Uni I think licked it. For sure she sniffed it, b/c she found it, that's how I found it. But she was acting weird before the gum, so IDK

| It wouldn't be related to her acting weird last Sunday, would it? The way she's acting doesn't resemble anything, but it's just a thought. I hope she feels better soon!

That would scare me, lots of gum has sugarless sweeteners that can hurt them, but if she was acting weird before they came in, I guess it wasn't that. I'm really clueless when it comes to illness, I just know that Pepcid is pretty safe and seems to help if it's stomach related.

| Well she was acting a different weird last sunday she had that foamy mouth thing going on but it went away after less than an hour, but other than that she seemed normal. Today and yesterday is like she's scared or something.

You know Nancy, I can't find a spider with long enough legs to make Uni that spider costume. I'm so jealous of Joey

I ♥ Joey & Ralphie! Donating Member | They didn't have them at Walmart this year, in fact, they didn't have much of anything at Walmart this year. Last year they had so many different colors and types of these same spiders. Someone told me they found something at Michaels they could use for it. This looks a lot like it: Amazon.com: Large Hairy Poseable Black Spider ~...

| That scared me more than the acting scared thing. But you have to remember that my boy is scared of EVERYTHING. So acting scared, hidding, wanting to be put down so he can run and hide, and piddling from fear are normal occurances at my house. I hope you figure it out soon!

| I had a little dachshund that would act like that when her back was out...Then I'd take her to the vet and he'd give her some steroids or muscle relaxers (not sure which now) and she would feel better...She always had back problems, and sometimes she was doing good, and other times, not so much...Maybe have the vet check her out on Monday.... |

| If she continues to do it, I'll have her vet check her out. If she stops then i won't take her. I already bring her in for every little thing and he thinks I'm crazy. well I am crazy but you know what i mean.
