OOH! That sounds so much like what gizmo went through about a month ago. He stopped eating, and drinking, just laid around, didn't even walk that much. He actually even threw up a few times. I had to idea what to do. I a also a stay at home mother with three little boys, so a trip to the vet was going to be a little difficult, especially with my husband traveling for work all the time. So I gave him the nutri-cal and some water through a syringe, and then I stayed up to watch him all night long. About 10 the next morning he pooped out the top half of a bottle nipple. I could not believe it!!! That whole time, he was sick because I had accidentally left a baby bottle out, and he got it, and chewed off the top of the nipple. Oh the things dogs will eat. Now I am extremely careful of everything he gets to play with, and everything that is on the floor. Because who knows, next time I could not be so lucky. If your baby does have some type of blockage, I pray that he can pass it on his own. I will say a little prayer until we get your next update. By the way I also live in NW Arkansas, and I would be glad to help you out with a good vet that I have used for many years. He has taken care of all of our family pets, as well as my pets when I was a child. He is very good with my yorkie, and I am sure you will like him.. Good luck and god bless...
