| Max is not "acting" like himself... He is not eating or playing. His 2 favorite things in life. He "looks" sad. He had a bm this morning and stool was fine. He was acting fine last night. Nothing seemed wrong. I am going to pick up some Nutrical to make sure his sugar stays up. No idea what to do. I feel so helpless and wish he could tell me what's wrong. Feel silly taking him to the vet and saying he is not "acting" like himself. Mickey is acting fine. He goes up to Max and sniffs him as if to say "You ok brother?". Max also started eating grass this morning the past few times I took him out. Some say they do this to induce vomiting. Is this true? Any advice?

They do not have anything around they can just eat when they want. No more Bullies cuz Mickey swallowed the 6 inch one. No cheese or chews of any kind he could have gotten into. Only food and treats when go potty. Maybe he ate something last night on his walk I didn't see.

| Update: Called vet office and she said keep an eye on him and if not better by afternoon to come in. She said since he was going to the bathroom alright maybe he just had an upset tummy. Gave Max some Nutrical (about 2t.) at noon and he is acting fine. He is eating, playing, barking, ... Acting totally normal. Ill see if he keeps it up. If he starts acting strange again, I'll take him in.

| I pray Max is feeling better. My boys eat blades of grass for no reason, or maybe just to be naughty, so I don't think it is always to induce vomiting.

| How is Max today? His symptoms sound similar to Mikkis last illness. She was not playful and not eating. I ended up having to take her in and she needed an antibiotic. Does he have fever? Mikki was shaking and that was a sign of fever. Hope he is better today.
