| Rascal had a restful night on the bed beside me. He is still quite not himself. We are only allowed to give him a teaspoon of clear liquid starting at noon and if he keeps it down another teaspoon in 2 to 3 hours. no solid food for another 12 hours if everything stays in. The poor little guy smells terrible and he was trying to wash his face the same way a cat does. Licking his leg and foot and rubbing it around his chin and nose. The first fluid has so far stayed down and we have had no diarrhea since he did it in the front of the checkout area of the em. vets. last night. Keeping our fingers crossed. |

| infection maybe? My small yorkie has this problem constantly.... it is infection of the gut in my case.... My vet always subscribes antibiotics and something for cramps... Yes it is true when vomiting occurs it is not good... it is usually bacteria that irritates the stomach lining. Yorkies are so sensitive creatures Hope you are both okay now? You are in my prayers! |

| The emergency vet did give us antibiotics, but we can't start him on them until tomorrow if all goes well. Thanks it is heart breaking for all of us that have to watch the little guys suffer. |

| How are you doing? These little ones can be very tough in bad situations!!! Did the antibiotics help a bit? It usually just gives them that little boost to recovery!! Mine is now six and believe you me we went through a few courses of antibiotics!!! It always helps!Keep me posted! |

| He is doing much better today no vomiting and no poop. He has had three small amounts of chicken and rice, two doses of his antibiotics. He even made a half- heart attempt to shake an old towel I had been using as lap cover when he was having his terrible problems. Thanks again for your concern. It always helps when you know there are other people in the world who care. |

| Great to hear! Sounds like Rascal is on his way to a full recovery. I know it's so heartbreaking having your baby go through any discomfort or pain but he's lucky to have a responsible, loving mommy like yourself! I'd love to see him! Upload pictures of Rascal when you can!!!

Therapy Dog Donating Member | First welcome to YT and so sorry that Rascal is not feeling well. How is he doing? I, too, wonder if it's a reaction to the shots given together. My vet gives them separately and we don't have to get some of them every year. I hope that's all it is and that Rascal's tummy gets better soon. I know you are doing the right thing in not giving him his meds as he will just throw them up anyway and they'll be useless. If he doesn't get better you should just call your vet again. Keep us posted.

| I'm so glad to hear Rascal is starting to act like himself again! Even a half hearted attempt at playing is great progress. I saw the pictures you posted (as linked by another poster), and he sure is a cutie pie. I hope he'll soon be 100% back to normal!
