Painful tummy My little Yorkie/Maltese has a belly ache...I think she is constipated but I would like to hear from you guys. I got home from work yesterday and she was very slow moving and her belly was hard and painful...I gave her some syrup and a little bit a mineral oil. She started feeling a little better but no complete bowel movement. She was an abuse case and she has a weak back so she has a tendency to drop little pieces without realizing it and when she goes she struggles to empty her colon completely. She had a little bit a runny poop from the mineral oil and a little bit of flatulence when I picked her up. When I first got home she was spitting up white/yellow foamy stuff but not for long...She is eating and drinking and sleeping but hasn't gone potty. Her gums look normal too. My vet will be back tonight and I can take her...the local emergency clinic is terrible. She acts like her belly is painful to the touch. Any ideas? Thanks! |
