Dogs have very short digestive systems, so that's why they usually stay fairly regular. While it's not too surprising her system is a little off, this is pretty excessive. And, at this point - getting dangerous (or at the very least, no longer something to "mess with" - you know?).
I think I would feed very little at this point, but give water. To encourage water, take a small bowl of water and add some karo or honey to sweeten it - she may drink more that way.
So has she eaten even more today? Poor thing... |
She had her usual amount of food today. I don't think im going to give her anything in the morning if she doesn't go tonight and more than likely be taking her to the emergency center tomorrow. I gave her the 2nd dose of mineral oil and nothing has happened. She's gone to sleep now. I'm just really hoping for the oil to work during the middle of the night. I'm worried sick and thinking that the original diagnosis from her vomiting is wrong now....
