| She's getting worse! My husband is getting home in 2 hours and Tink and I are headed straight for the vet. I was so proud of her last night for eating a bowl of rice and chicken and some chicken broth. But today she hasn't taken in any fluid or food of any kind. She still has diarrhea. I force fed her just a little bit of water in a syringe because I'm worried about dehydration and she threw it all up. What in the world could possibly be causing this???? I'm so worried. |

| gosh, so many things can cause stomach upset! I have no idea, but I'm glad you're taking her to the vet! Could be a simple stomach virus. Let us know how things go!

| How old is Tink? Maddy had the same symptoms and it was parvo... she had her shot and booster but she still somehow got it..... have them do a parvo test.... doesnt hurt to be safe..... they are going to diagnose her with a tummy virus but I went to a another vet he tested her and it was positive.... good luck and keep us posted. |

| As I said yesterday, I don't have any idea. I feel so bad for her and you. I suppose it could be as simple as an intestinal bug. Only a dr will be able to tell you for sure. Good luck and let us know when you get back.

| Poor little sweetie. Maddie had symptoms like that when she was diagnosed with irritable bowel syndrome, but I sometimes wonder is she didn't eat something outside like a mushroom or insect that made her so deathly ill because she's been really good lately. I sure hope there's nothing serious with your Tinkerbell! Hopefully you will get some medicine that will clear her up. It only took a short time for the medicine to work for Maddie! Hugs to you!

| wow I hate this. I did call my vet about the wild mushrooms that come up from time to time in my yard or they have lately. He said some dogs can be poisoned by it but most dogs once they get sick from it usually wont eat another one. But some dogs are more allergic than others. So its according to your dog if she did eat some maybe its just a reaction from something like that but sometimes it will kill them. I hope your baby is ok. prayers to you and her and keep us posted.

| Coco had this same thing. She had BAD diarrhea (with bloody stool) for like 3 days and vomiting too. I took her to the vet and it turns out she had munched on some plastic which had paint in it, and it was giving her an upset tummy. She got put on antibiotics and I had to feed her bland food. I hope Tink feels better soon

| Anxious to hear how your baby is doing???? Sure hope the Vet can figure out what is wrong and help get her on the road to recovery. I just hate it when the babies are sick. Prayers and hugs being sent your way.
