Doggy flu? Now Max sick

[Maximo]

Maybe it wasn't stress that gave Teddy an upset stomach for a day. Now Max can't keep his food down. He threw up breakfast and and vomited again when he started eating lunch. I took away the remaining kibble.

This is 48 hours after Teddy's problems started.

Anyone with 2 or more dogs ever had this happen?

You've got to be kidding! Darn. I hope someone has some advice.

I'm doing the same thing I did with Teddy, withholding food until tomorrow, then doggy crackers. Holding food back from a MAX is hard, as you well know.

Always hate to see them sick, but I'm hopeful that this is just a 24 hour bug. The boys haven't gone anywhere recently, so they must have picked something up in the neighborhood.

Hope they feel better soon!

Probably some type of little bug they shared. I have that happen on occasion...either vomiting or diarrhea that lasts a day and passes from one to another.
It always makes me wonder where in the world it comes from. Just out of nowhere it seems.
Although....one summer I had a terrible time with my pups. I went to a photo shoot and they picked up something. Started out with Cookie and by the time the first two weeks were over, three of my pups had to be hospitalized for iv fluids. It was dreadful...some kind of nasty virus. That is why I am not keen on dog parks and meet ups. I am wary of strange dogs around mine.
I am sure it will be short lived like with Teddy.

Not with my dogs so far, but awhile back I had nine cats. One of them caught a virus and before I knew it the virus had spread to all nine of my cats. Then it left as soon as it got there and everybody was okay. Same symtoms. Throwing up their meals.

Hope both are feeling better today!

Hope they are feeling better today, sending hugs and get well wishes

[Maximo]

Thank you everyone for the well wishes. Max is doing much better today and he was able to eat. He suffered a little more than Teddy did. Hopefully we are done with this now.

Scary stuff!

We are suffering a terrible drought here, so we haven't had any rain to wash away the germs on our walkways. That is my theory.

I hope this illness has vanished for good from my pack.

So happy to hear that both boys are ok now!
