My Moms princess is sick help.

well my mom has a 7 year old yorkie who has always been full of energy and barks, but now she has changed over the past couple days, she has lost a lot of weight, she has diarrhea, does not want anything to do with food and if she does eat it comes right back out, she will drink water but some times she'll vomit it and looks really sad. i've taken her to the vet and he gave her a shot to stop the vomiting ( didn't work) a shot to hydrate her and some drops to stop the diarrhea, well she hasnt eaten much so hasn't gone potty, i don't know what to do my mom loves her dog and she's been with us for a long time and would hate for something to happen to her, i feel helpless, i've tried giving her chicken and rice as well as gatorade but doesnt want either, any suggestions or what i should do.

What did the vet offer as diagnosis or cause for this illness?

If she has not improved, a return trip to the vet is necessary. Was a stool sample and bloodwork done?

I think you need to take her back to the vet asap. These little ones can go down quickly. Since she will not even eat the chicken I feel it is necessary to take her to the vet as soon as possible. Please keep us updated.

He really didn't diagnose anything, he listed a number of things that could possibly be causing it. neither a stool or a blood sample was done, the vet wanted to see if the medication he gave her would work. I will be returning to the vet asap. will keep everyone up to date.

How is your mom's dog? What did the vet say when you took him back? I hope princess is doing better.
