She is just throwing up everything I feed her. First her normal dog food, so I gave her some bone-less, skinless boiled chicken. She threw it up.  The only thing she has not threw up is a small amount of raw ground beef my DH gave her.
My vet is on vacation til monday, but his assistant said it could be a whole list of things, but since no fever and only with food, that it was possibly just the food, and gave me the number of another vet an hour away...
Any ideas?? |

Hi, what is wrong with your baby? Nausea? Vomiting? Loss of appetite? Diarrhea? Diarrhea with blood is very serious. If your vet approves the med for your baby The Veterinary Drug Handbook says for acute diarrhea give Pepto 1ml per 5kg or 1 ml per 5X2.2=11lbs. SO if the baby weighs 5 lbs --1/2 ml; if under 5 lbs I would give 1/3 or .3 mls no more than 3 times a day.
But, always ask your vet what to give. The meds that the vet might need to prescribe might not be comaptible with the pepto.
Don't know if it helps you I hope your baby is all better without meds..

i copied this link for you.. also i use ginger snaps... small pieces... she will feel better tomorrow ... hopefully.. dont try to feed her much for 24 h..
push fluids... vanilla ice cream might help.. there might be a need for calcium
