Jada has a new symptom:( I have two other threads going about my two throwing up. Jada is running, barking at the door and acting normal except for one thing. In the last hour or so,if she is on the floor and the best I can explain it she is in a position where she looks like she is praying, her rear end is up in the air and she has her head resting on her front paws. I know I have read this somewhere and I can't find it. No more throwing up and she has normal poops. Oh and my vet and his whole office are at a horse show tonight:( I can get in touch with my DIL or SIL who are both vet techs for him, but I hate to bother them because they are both showing horses tonight, but I will if I have to. |
That is sometimes called a play bow, but it can happen with stomach and back pain. I'd assume that she is having abdominal pain since she has vomited. How many times did she vomit? What did you do to treat it? |
Gosh Michelle, I wish knew somthing of this, but I don't. Just wanted to send good thoughts, well wishes and prayers to both Jada and Bogie. |

First guess is a gas bubble in the intestines. Second guess would just be generalized pain. Third guess is pancreatitis. For what that's worth... Has it stopped? |

I so wish I could just diagnose her for you and tell you to give xyz, but... :( I mean, if it's gas, Gas-x or Mylecon can be given, but I can't say to do that... Pain drugs can be used to keep her comfortable. Again, can't tell you what to use. :( If the bloating continues, an xray will be needed. i'd say call one of the techs, but they should not be directing you to give drugs either, so that may not do much good. Sometimes ER vets will give adivce over the phone. You could try that. On very rare occasions, small dogs actually get gastric GDV (true bloat). the symptoms would almost certainly be much worse than this. But because it's still theoretcially possible that she is bloating up, that's a slight concern. If it has continued, I'd just call the ER and see if they will advise. But please don't be toooo worried. |
M i am so sorry Jada is not feeling better today |

No, it is definitely not an emergency as long as it's getting better (or staying stable). If she is throwing up, trying to throw up and can't, looks "extremely" uncomfortable, etc., then that would indicate an emergency. I would call your vet if it hasn't stopped by 9 or 10 though. You can then get something in her to ease the pain. |

I keep their number in my phone after the Trident scare with Cooper and eye problems with Maddie. They are pretty far for me but definitly good to know where they are if I need them. |
Michelle...I'm just seeing this. I'm so sorry to hear Jada is still sick and now Bogie too...bless your heart. I know how we worry about our babies...I hope they're feeling better tomorrow...keep us updated...hugs to you all! |
Just seeing this. Hope Jada and Bogie are much better now. |
Update....Bogie, no more throwing up since last night around 8ish. Jada seems to be better too. Her tummy looks back to normal and it has been over 24hrs since her last time to throw up. She made a poop that was formed and was as long as she is:eek: not kidding. So I am sure that was some of her problem last night. I am going to keep Bogie on a bland diet today and added Jada a little kibble to her rice and pumpkin and she wouldn't touch it. I hope they don't start getting picky with their kibble, because it took me a year to find one they both like and that doesn't bother Jada's allergies. Thanks everyone for your care and concern you guys are the greatest:) |
I'm so glad to hear they're both feeling better Michelle...hugs & kisses to you Jada & Bogie :) |

M so glad to hear the babies are doing better :) |
Glad they both are feeling better today! That is such good news. |
Michelle so glad they are feeling better!:) Wishing all of you a nice relaxing Sunday |
Checking back this morning....so glad they are both doing much better, what a relief. |
Thanks Guys...they have not had any more throw ups this am. Ate a bland breakfast and wanted a snack about 9am, they ate an egg white and so far so good. We had baths, they were so stinky..Ewww and now we are cuddled up on the couch. We are going to relax today:) |
I am very happy to hear that Jada worked things out :eek: and is feeling better, and that both of your cuties are doing well today. Praying this is the final, final end of this mystery illness for them. Max had severe gas/constipation once and it was scary. He couldn't sit or lie still for even a second. The only thing that made him comfortable was walking outside. We walked, had a warm body bath, ate pumpkin, walked some more, and finally he was able to sleep and everything came out in the morning. :) |
