When I took her outside to see if she would poop she was eating a bunc of grass. From what I under stand grass = fiber so I guess she wants to poop.
Also hopefully there isn't a next time. But if I need to induce vomiting what is the best way? A finger to the throat? Thanks everyone for your advice. |
It is hard to measure BP in dogs under 15 pounds. How is she maintaining an accurate BP check on this pup? Does she know normal systolic/diastolic rates in canines?
