 he's better
of course I took him to the vet. Had to wait until Friday, when I could get an appointment. Vet checked ears & teeth & couldn't find anything wrong. Saturday morning he was totally worse. The drooling was now constant, wouldn't eat or drink. Took him to the ER. They did blood work, nothing wrong no infection, pancreatitis, no liver problems nothing, a bit dehydrated. Did xrays on throat, stomach & stuff, nothing stuck anywhere. They sedated him so they could look in his throat. His little throat was red & inflamed. they gave medicine to coat his throat & IV for dehydration. He is o.k now but it took the weekend to get him back to normal. He had swallowed a bur on Monday that had been stuck in his hair (I didn't see it) He vomited it up in the afternoon that's is how I knew he ate it. But he seemed o.k. The bur had caused the throat problems & it just got so sore he couldn't swallow anymore by Saturday. |
