Sorry I didn't update sooner....work has been crazy today!

Halo is much better. After the enema yesterday, she ate a little boiled chicken for me last night. This morning she was much perker. She had rice & chicken for breakfast. I checked on her at noon, and no more vomitting. Vet is going to do another blood test tomorrow, but I think she's on the road to recover now; just don't know what she's recovering from.

Thanks for all your thoughts & prayers.

Thank You for the update, so glad she's doing better. Maybe she got into something she shouldn't have. Mine are always cleaning our floors, I call them Yorkie Roombas!

I am so glad to hear she is doing better. I had a 'similar' case with Maddie last summer, I think.

( I forget when what happends these days) She wasn't pooping, vomitted when she ate and then quit eating. She too is a bigger girl and and lost a few lbs in no time. After a day or so, we saw the vet.

They did an exray and immediatly saw a blockage in her GI. Next step was a fecal exam, I guess is whay you'd call it.

What they pulled outta her bum was wood!

She had found some mulch to chew on while in the yard and it became lodged.

I woud've driven myself crazy had I not know. I hope get an answer to what it was causing the problem, but I again, happy she appears to be recovering.
