Well, Bailee is sick and I am freaking out a little so this is the place I thought of...
She has always thrown up yellow bile about once or twice a week due to the fact she was hungry and needed to eat. ( I free feed but she just doesn't east sometimes.) About a week ago, this started becoming more frequent like 2 or 3 times a day and in the night. The vet said she could just be producing too much bile and to start giving her 2.5 mg of Pepcid AC daily. I started this two days ago and it seemed to have taken care of the yellow bile problem,but now she is throwing up her food! She has done this twice today and it is worrying me to death. It is a mix of food and saliva/foam type stuff. Any advice would be helpful! |
Anti-acids work the same way in humans as dog etc...they only band aid an issue and do not CURE it...try a teaspoon of (mother's)APPLE CIDER VINEGAR in water-or in some dog safe liquid (like flavored water to change the taste). Apple cider vinegar works wonders for people with reflux too after 3 months of Prilosec, two months prior with Nexxium, and years of tums etc I was passed on the knowledge of (mother;s)APPLE CIDER VINEGAR from a nutritionist, and later read about it in Kevin Trudeau's Natural Cures book. See the second link for the effects on curing conditions in both people and animals. Works wonders-just out of curiosity do you use a raised feeder? I love the ones from thebellacottage.com they are gorgeous and they are more than reasonably priced-cheaper than I've seen any basic one in any pet store. have you ever considered a water bottle instead of a water bowl? Miniature Schnauzer's are extremely refluxy and have to use a raised feeder, also they have beard issues and are recommended to use a water bottle to keep their face dry-well I found using a water bottle also aided in reflux issues.
