What do I do? Just got my Yorkie, he's 5 years old, I had her a week now, she has no teeth, she was eating good, now he's puking up all her food, I don't know to do. Can you suggest something! |
Well for one thing is this a she or a he I cant follow your post. How long has he/she been vomiting if more than one day may need to see a vet. |
One day He's not acting sickly! Still playful. Bowels normal. So far no more, he's looking for food again. He's 5 years old. |
I would suggest that if the dog puked blood or what looks like coffee grounds in the vomit, go to an Emergency Vet now. If it was normal vomit, see #11 below. Bear in mind that your dog can become dehydrated and very ill if she is vomiting often so if she's vomited more than twice in the last 24 hours, I would seek the attention of a vet, especially if there are ANY more symptoms such as refusing food, water, sleepiness, weakness/inability to stand, pale or tacky gums. From Find A Vet: These 13 Dog Symptoms Need Immediate Attention From Your Vet | Find A Vet The American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA) warns that pet parents should immediately take their dogs to a veterinarian or emergency animal hospital if their pets are displaying any of the following symptoms: 1. Severe bleeding or bleeding that lasts longer than 5 minutes 2. Choking or difficulty breathing, or continuous coughing and gagging 3. Bleeding from your dog’s nose, mouth or rectum; coughing up blood; or blood in his urine 4. Inability to urinate or defecate, or obvious pain when doing so 5. Eye injuries *(Or eye discoloration, swelling, prolonged squinting) 6. Your dog ate something poisonous, such as antifreeze, xylitol, chocolate, rodent poison, etc.*(Including foreign objects, human/other medicine not currently prescribed for the dog) 7. Seizures and/or staggering 8. Fractured bones, severe limping or your dog cannot move his leg(s) 9. Obvious signs of pain or anxiety *(In addition, toy breeds may exhibit shaking/trembling with pain or anxiety) 10. Heat stress or heatstroke 11. Severe vomiting or diarrhea (more than twice in a 24-hour period, or if it is combined with illness or any of these other conditions) 12. Refusal to drink water for more than 24 hours *(16 hours for toy breeds as they dehydrate quickly) 13. Unconsciousness *Recommendations/clarifications added by YorkieTalk.com members “The bottom line is that any concern about your pet’s health warrants, at minimum, a call to your veterinarian,” the AVMA notes.
