The day before yesterday I left Mascot with my sister for 1 evening. My family and I were going to Busch Gardens, 4 hrs away, and decided to leave the night before to get a hotel and be able to hit the gates as soon as they opened. Anyhow, we picked Mascot up yesterday evening and he was acting like he was so thirsty. I gave him water and he lapped it down like he hadn't been given water. This morning Mascot has thrown up everything he tries to eat or drink. So far he has thrown up 5 times. It seems as soon as he swallows the food he throws up, like it never has a chance to make it to his stomach. I called my sister and asked her was he vomiting yesterday. She said he vomited mucos or water once but that was all. I asked her if he ate all right and did he throw up after he ate. She then asked her husband did he give mascot food yesterday, he said no. SO they never even fed him!!!!!
I am so mad! How can you forget to feed him? Could he be vomiting becasue he wasn't fed yesterday and he is worked up. He is not a small yorkie. He weighs in at 8.5 lbs. He isn't acting lethargic or sick in anyway. Only when he eats or drinks he vomits immediately. My husband gave him a piece of shredded cheese a few minutes ago and before he even seem to swallow it he vomited. He has never had any issues with vomitting until today. He has been healthy and spunky for several months. I don't know if anyone remembers my prior posts when mascot was a pup, but he came to me with giardia which took several months to cure. Other then that he has been healthy and happy. I am going to take him to the vet in the morning. He is scheduled for neutering on Thursday. I guess my question is can mascot get upset stomach from going without food? I am going to make him some chicken and rice now, but if he can't swallow a piece of cheese how can he swallow rice? Do you think he may have swallowed something that is causing and obstruction? Could he be upset that we left him overnight? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
