Yesterday around noon Rocky had diarreah, but acted fine so I thought it was just a loose stool. Then in the later evening, I gave him a piece of bologna, he threw part of that up. Then about an hour later, I took him out, and he had diarreah again. I cooked him some rice and boiled chicken breast to help settle his tummy, but at 1in the morning my bf woke up because something smelled bad...he had diarreah again on the floor, then again at 4am. This morning before I went to work he wasn't really himself. I got off early, and he's acting very energetic, but he did EVERYTHING in his kennel; diarreah, pee, and vomitted! Do you guys think I should take him in to the vet, or just wait a bit to see how he is because he's acting like him normal self again, but that could just be excitement because I'm home.

Please take him to a Vet. ASAP. There is something seriously wrong and should be taken care of .

I would take him to the vet. IMO feeding them is the wrong thing to do when their tummies are upset. Their tummies need a rest or a little dab of the pink stuff first.

There seems to be so much going around of the same thing in dogs
this week. Also I hope it has nothing to do with the food recall!
What's he eating?
Call the vet and make sure he is getting fluids or he will become
dehydrated and then he will be in trouble for sure.
Good luck and keep us posted.

He's eating Royan Canin.

I gave him a chew/treat thing, and I think that might be it. He hasn't had it since tuesday, but the diareahh and vomitting hasn't stopped. I'm going to call the vet right now.

I would take him in just to be safe. Bologna is hard on dogs digestive and can lead to pancreatitis. Hope he is better soon. Let me know how he is,

peanut · 03-22-2007, 01:59 PM

I would take him to the vet...there is alot going around, but they are so little I would take him in just to be safe...Tell Rocky we are sending him get well soon wishes, kisses & hugs...Keep us updated girl...

JeanieK · 03-22-2007, 02:00 PM

I hope it's nothing more than an upset stomach. The poor baby, they do so hate to mess in their kennels.

browniesmom622 · 03-22-2007, 02:01 PM

when a dog does something they dont usally do like (EVERYTHING in his kennel; diarreah, pee, and vomitted) i always take them to the vet that mean something isnt right

good luck and feel better

LaviniaHyacynth · 03-22-2007, 02:10 PM

This happened to Vivi a while ago...I gave her a small raw hide chewy before I knew how bad they are for Yorkies and it got stuck in her digestive system....the vet should check for this so please make sure and tell her/him about the chewy. I hope your baby feels well soon.

The same thing happen to my Leeloo had very bad diarrhea for almost a week

........I took her to the vet and they found a parasite called Giardia which apparently is very common in puppies but easy to get when in contact with contaminated water.
My advised take Rocky to the vet and be extra careful handling the poop..........I've also put my Marley on medication just in case

good luck!

Rae Rae · 03-22-2007, 03:23 PM

I called and they wanted a stool sample. I didn't think he would poop by the time they closed, so I took him for a walk down the street and he did, so we rushed to the vet and they checked it. No parasites or bugs were found

She gave me a diet and eating instructions for him for the next few days, and some antibiotics, and to follow up if he continues throwing up or the diarreah.

Thanks for the wishes guys! I hope he recovers from this soon. I hate seeing him in pain. Especially last night at 4am when he was pooping on the carpet, he looked at me like "Mommy I'm sorry, but my tummy hurts soo bad.:

I was afraid he was going to do something in it by the time I got home from work, that's why I left early. I'm glad I did because my bf got stuck at work late, and I feel so bad that he had to sit in it, well smell it since he did it all on the side of his bed in the kennel.

chattiesmom · 03-22-2007, 03:31 PM
