This happened Wed morning at about 10 and when I found out about it at 1...I told him to give her a tbs of peroxide and call the vet. I just started a new job this week so i couldnt rush out of there like i wanted to. She threw up about 7 times and by the time i got home that night she had diarreah 3 or 4 times (all on her wee wee pad) He also gave her a peice of bread and water. That night she was very lethargic and didnt even sniff anything on her walk. And yesterday was not any better. She seems fine one minute and then refuses to get up or even get a new bully stick the next. This morning my bf is taking her to the vet at 9 30 for some blood work and a check up. The vet said to call poison control but i read up on it online and the only thing to do if the cream gets internally is to flush out with water. She has been drinking a lot lately and eating as usual but she is still very weak and doesnt really play or run at all. I dont know what else I can do. If anyone has any advice on what kinds of tests the vet should do or anything else I could do I would really appreciate it. Ive never been so upset....she looks so weak and sad all the time. What can I do? |
If she isn't acting herself I would DEFINATELY bring her in to the vet. IMO..she probably should have been given the peroxide immediately.
I've learned the hard way you can't leave ANYTHING around with these little ones...they get into EVERYTHING! I've had eye glasses chewed up (taken off of the table next to the couch) and when Sadie was a pup she chewed my Mom's hearing aid...THANK GOD! she didn't swallow the battery that was in it!
I hope she is going to be ok....let us know!
