I get mine from the vet but I have been told that wal-mart sells a very similar product in the pet food aisle.
I hope that you're able to get something down him soon. Poor Baby. Prayers for you and Mickey
Forgot to add that dogs LOVE Rebound and will usually still lap it up even when they won't eat. |
well I called and asked him about the icecream, because I too know the dairy products arent good for his tummy, he said at this point he woild say go ahead, he said hes got so much acid on his stomach is why he keeps throwing up and he needs some thing now to break up that acid. he said to just give him a bite or two to hold him over untill he gets a med and the liquid food and syringe.I made some very watery food up and made him eat a few bites of it. hes very mad at me now.
