We are definitely keeping our fingers crossed for a peaceful and safe weekend!
That's good news that those areas have been ruled out - very encouraging! I know you feel better knowing is likely nothing dire. Hopefully, then, it's just the fake pregnancy and she'll do better soon. Poor baby - don't you hate to see them so sick and feeling so awful? It's just the worst! I pray little Cookie can eat some and get some strength and drink her water and not throw up any more.

For what it's worth, my Tibbe's liver studies on routine blood work were all within normal limits also, yet he was still vomiting/spitting up yellow bile. But Ellie May/Crystal, a member here who is becoming a vet, told me that a dog could still have MVD or liver shunt with normal blood tests on routine blood work and that I would need to request a Bile Acids Test to know for sure how he was processing his proteins through his liver. I did request the BAT, it was done and came back positive and after further testing, he was diagnosed with MVD and successful treatment started with a hepatic diet. He's been a different dog since he began his new diet 8 mos. ago. I doubt your girl has that problem but just wanted you to know in case it becomes an issue down the road, though hopefully it's simply her hormones taking control, telling her she's pregnant. Poor baby - sure hope she is okay and has a better weekend than her week has been heretofore.
