Does anyone know if this could be pancreatitis? She said something about giving it trout skin, could that be high in fat? If it is pancreatitis, doesn't a Pepcid pill help? To the OP, when Joey was sick his vet said I could give him 1/4 of a 10 mg pill of Pepcid. They also sell Pepcid in 20 mg, however get the 10mg and give 1/4 of the 10 mg pill for a 5 pound Yorkie. At least it won't hurt him.
I was thinking the same thing, she also gave him a couple of hot dogs. He might not have an appetite bc he doesn't feel good.
Why did the vet diagnose his condition as a blockage? Is he vomitting? Runny stools? Any updates?
