I use Hylands Colic tablets now they are completely homeopathic...of course I used it on my kids so its safety for dogs should be double checked.

I know mylicon stopped adding their dye it caused reactions bit its still a simthon base, so why is it safe to give infants (ie less that 5 reported deaths a year) but the exact same amount of the same substance in another area of study is unsafe-boggles me completely.

I am concerned as well. I have my thoughts but this is best figured out by your vet. Keep us posted.

Sounds like Taycie is on a strict diet, but I wanted to mention that Teddy had a couple episodes of screaming and acting like he was scared in the middle night that were related to gas -- always happened after I gave him something like apple, green beans, or something else fibery outside of his normal diet. He can't have veggies or fruit.

I am wondering if she was struggling with Gas pain as well. That's all I can think of at this point. However, she doesn't eat anything other then her Royal Canin HP Hydrolyzed or Science Diet Z/D wet to mix meds in.

At this point if a diet change is needed a consult with a Board Certified Nutritionist will be done and I will go from there.

Good information. Thank you!

Maybe she has a bit of a kink in the intestine from a bit of stool, a little polyp or she ate something that you don't know about that fell to the floor or outside on a walk or potty run. Sure hope she gets better in a hurry!

Poor baby! I hope the vet is able to figure out what's up and make her feel better

LuvTaycieGirl · 10-04-2012, 09:12 AM

Taycie goes back to the vet in a few hours. We had a rough night again last night. Praying for some answers.

yorkietalkjilly · 10-04-2012, 09:57 AM

Praying it's nothing serious.

Hoping you can find some answers soon.

Yorkiemom1 · 10-04-2012, 01:22 PM

Sitting here with baited breath, waiting for an update on the baby.........

LuvTaycieGirl · 10-04-2012, 01:45 PM

Well... Nothing so far. I took her in and they took X-rays and they said all they could see is poop

they said once she poops bring her back in and we will try again. I'm frustrated because she ate an 1/8 cup last night per vet instruction and has had no food at all today. She pooped her normal poop this morning at 8:00 and nothing since.

I've never wanted to see poop so bad in my life. Personally she feels empty to me..and with no breakfast and very little dinner I hope some poop will show up in the next few hours so I can take her back in.

So I guess we will go for a walk..
