Update on Bailey... - YorkieTalk.com Forums

First, I just want to thank everyone for all the prayers and support. It really helped get me through our first major illness. Here's the update on Bailey: On Monday morning I woke to find vomit and blood on the kitchen floor, she was laying quietly in her bed and would not lift her head to look at me...I immediately called the vet and took her in. They diagnosed her with HGE, gastroenteritis. They said the blood was from her esophogas from vomitting so much. They put her on several medications, gave her fluids, and she has been home since. She is now doing exceptionally well, she's lively, active, and eating well. No vomitting or diarrhea since Monday. I'm hopeful she will make a full recovery. Again, Thanks to everyone! I couldn't have gotten through this without you....

I am glad Bailey is doing better now. I know how scary that can be.
I also experienced the same thing with Buddy. I hope she is back
to her puppy self in a couple of days.

I am glad Bailey is doing better. Did the vet ever say what he thinks caused her to get sick?
