Make sure he's getting lots of water till you get to the vet - dehydration happens very quickly with small dogs and is very dangerous - so make sure you're getting lots of fluids in him - no matter how you do it - if you have a syringe use it if he won't drink.
I completely agree!! At the very least she should call the vet and talk it over with them, that won't cost her anything. But as stated before, he really should see the vet to determine the exact cause.

I sure wish I knew whether or not she has contacted any vet yet and asked them all these things and whether or not a payment plan could be set up. I know I would do anything for my furkids if they were sick.
