Something happened outside where Bentley had to poop and it got all over his butt, maybe it wasn't formed? And dad said he was licking his leg which was weird. Well when he got inside I checked his butt and it was all messy so mom gave him a small bath. He started vomiting violently while mom was holding him to dry him off. He emptied his stomach. Maybe he had one to many half greenies? He refuses to walk on his back left leg, holding it up and licking it continuously. We checked and feel no bump, bite, tick, no blood, no swelling nothing. I gave him a dose of benedryl (2.5 cc's per previous conversations with the vet). He's calming down a bit but STILL continuously licking his leg. We can't figure out what's wrong. Something similar happened about a month or so ago where he almost died but (someone- God?) saved him. I don't know what to do. He's not breathing funny or slow or anything like last time and the only thing he is doing is licking. Should I follow up with more benedryl in the morning? If he is not walking on his leg tomorrow I will probably call the vet and get an appointment.
It seems it is not safe to walk my dog around our neighborhood. I have no idea what to do. He's not shaking or anything odd.
It's ridiculous that we can't walk our dog around our neighborhood without him getting sick or bitten or something. I'm so ticked right now. I don't want to deny him walks. I live in a nice suburban neighborhood. People spray their grass and stuff so bugs or snakes arent around.
I think he's okay I am just scared and ticked. |
If this statement is true, I'd get him to an ER asap. Nothing to fool around with if his behavior is the same as before when he almost died...
