I hope he is better soon, have you tried boiled chicken and rice for something bland, when he is back to eating, they have sensitive tummys that is for sure. The food change can make them sick, just try to keep him hydrated, sending you yorkie hugs

He is almost back on real food tomorrow we're at 3/4 real food 1/4 bland, so he's getting back to normal.

I did notice another thing though. He's been on chicken and rice and he's been scratching and itching like crazy, usually he just has a bit of dry skin (which I've been treating as a shampoo issue with no luck), so I'm starting to think on top of the previous issues that he has a chicken allergy. Luckily his new food doens't have any chicken in it.

He very well could have a chicken allergy. I hope he continues to get better. Poor lil guy. He's got a good nurse.

Just reading your thread. Glad to see he is getting better...I am sure your great nursing and love had a lot to do with that!

Thanks everyone... I'm going to eliminate all chicken and see if that helps the itching... the tummy problems seemed resolved.

Just reading this.... So glad Harley is feeling better. I can only imagine how frustrating it is.... Sending positive vibes for a speedy full recovery.
