0ur 8 month old baby girl started vomiting and sleeping lots on Wednesday.. we thought she probs had eaten something that had not agreed with her

but Thursday she was no better and was not drinking anything beyond a lick of wet fingers .. so we took her to the vets who gave her a shot of anti sickness and antibiotic jab ..swab parvo test was also done which was negative and sent home with fluid replacement mix for us to give her through the night and the vet gave us appointment for next morning

but as the night grew in she lay whimpering in her bed absolutely horrid to hear and see her in such a state .. so we called the vet who said to bring her straight in on arriving at vet she started with lots of black smelly watery poo

he put her on iv and admitted her .. she remained in that state right through Easter on Monday the vet wanted us to give a date on when to call it a day to which i burst into tears and left hubby to listen to the rest of the call..

but on calling Tuesday the vet said she was showing some interest in what they were doing so was happy to continue with treatment i told the vet my other dog (her mom) had now started vomiting and had stopped eating/drinking .. to which she had over night stay too but came home the next morning and was advised not to let her mix with the other dogs she has 8week old baby and our 3 year old male..

vet said was unsure if it was a bacteria or virus so best to isolate ..until Friday when he will re see mom

its now Thursday after calling vet just now they say no improvement with the girl in hospital

we have thought and thought and can think of nothing that they have eaten out the unusual except raw hide chews as a treat ..

x-rays where done and they showed nothing stuck ect..

we put the now 9 week old buyers on hold .. and mom remains one end of our house while pup and dad remain the other

we are an emotional wreck to say the least .. some help and suport would be greatfully received .. vet is saying it a gastro problem .. what that means idk!

anyone else been through this? .. will there be a beaming light at the end for our beutiful 8 month old?
