| Help, I think Mickey is sick. My one yr old Mickey is sick...wah, i don't know what to do. He is lethargic (barely barked when we walked him....he normally will not shut up!) even gave him his favorite toy (that we hide) and he didnt even make it squeak (we hide it cause he will squeak it for -3-5hrs straight!) when i went to kiss him my he was so hot...kissed my other yorkie he felt normal, his stool is also on the loose side as well. He was fine @ 10am....when we got home at 4pm he was warm and tired. Now its almost 1am and he is still the same way. I have had dogs all my life never actually had one that got a fever...mostly colds. When do i worry? when do i take him to the vet? I am going away for the day tomorrow to see stevie nicks in concert & now i will be worried, my sister said she will check on him a few times.....but he is my baby, so of course i will be worried anyway.

| Give him some pedylite and a little nutrical and see if that helps a little, if he stays feverish i would take him to the vet. |

| I think they always get sick when something's coming up...like leaving on vacation, etc... Lacy threw up 4 times Tuesday night. I was starting to really get worried about her. I just watched her and she just seemed to not be feeling good. I made sure she kept drinking some water. If she had started having more serious symptoms I would have taken her to the ER but I thought she'd be okay, and she woke up feeling fine the next morning. A friend of mine thinks she got sick because I just started going back to school all day and she's sad and has anxiety because I'm gone so much now... Nothing else out of the ordinary happened so maybe so.. I would just keep a good eye on your dog. Try to get him to eat a little something (as longs as he's not vomiting or having diarhea). And make sure he drinks some so he doesn't get dehydrated. If he starts having any more serious symptoms then I would get him in but dogs get sick sometimes just like we do and then feel better in a day or two.
