Louis is sick, I am scared that it's pancreatitis I don't know what is wrong with Louis. He has thrown up a 3 times today(yellow foam) and has diarrhea. He is not his usual happy self. He has been laying around all day, and he can't seem to get comfortable. I am hoping it is just the flu, but the more I keep reading I am scared it's pancreatitis. Does anyone know if these are the symptoms of pancreatitis? I am going to call the vet tomorrow, or take him to the emergency vet if it gets any worse. This happened to him about a year ago, he was sick one day and then he was fine the next. Please let me know. |
Awww. So sorry to hear our friend lil' louis isn't feeling well! We don't have any info to offer you just wanted to know we are thining of you and praying that he gets to feeling better really soon!! Please let us know if there is anything we can do and keep us posted on how he is feeling! :-) |
Sorry Louis is sick. I'm not sure what the symptoms of Pancreatitis are. Is he eating? Has eaten any human food that may have set it off? I hope you get some answers and he is feeling better soon. I would watch him closely and if he seems worse get him in right away. They can go down fast. I will keep him in my prayers. |

Could be his pancreas, but it also could be hundreds of other things... Maybe just a little bug or something... Make sure his gums stay pink and moist. Those are symptoms of pancreatitis, but they are also symptoms of so many other things. |
I think a hot dog could cause a tummy upset and possibly pancreatitis. If he isn't eating and not drinking much I would have the vet check him out. Keep us posted. |

One thing I forgot to add, his vomit has a horrible smell. I don' know if that means anything or not? |
Hotdog or really any food that they aren't used to, esp. fatty foods can trigger problems. Is he still vomiting? |

Sorry for all the questions, but is he holding down food or water at all? By white, how white? White gums are not a good sign, but of course all dogs will vary slightly. Any white does concern me though... |
If he isn't eating ad still throwing up I would get him in to the vet. Hopefully he will feel better soon. |
also is he tossing and turning like he cannot get comfortable as dogs with pancreatitis are in pain. My dog had it. How much does he weigh as 5 times vomitting can be alot for a tiny dog. Diarrhea is more dehydrating though than vomitting so if you have both going on that is not good. 3 days after probably not hot dog as usually it is within a 12 -24 hr time period for it to trigger but anything is possible. Best to restrict food for 12 hrs if you think pancreatitis. Also hold up water until vomitting stops then slowly give them some and do not let them gulp the water as gulping will make them vomit it up. I usually will give little bits at a time with my finger but only after all vomitting has stopped. You have to stop the vomitting cycle to let the tummy rest. First they vomit food, then bile then white foam. What is he vomitting up now? |
