vomiting & has nonstop diarrhea.
 

Omg, PLEASE head to a Vet ER asap. If this is going on for a week, something is very, very wrong. Also, she could die from dehydration. You've got to get her in!

Yes, please ASAP!!

I agree with Ann...please, please get her to a vet....you could lose her!

Yes Please!!!

Agree with everyone else....you Bella MUST BE SEEN BY A VET ASAP!! These little ones can shut down quickly....diarrhea and vomiting for days is not good.

i agree a vet visit is needed ....please keep us updated!!

Any updates? Did you take her to the vet?

Praying for Bella! Please update us when you can. Let us know what the vet says.

Please update us just as soon as you can.

I am on my way to take her in, thanks for all of your help. I will update everyone when I get back home.

I am so glad you are taking her in. Will look later for an udate...hope all goes well. :)

Glad you are going to the vet. Hoping all goes well and will check in later for an update on how she is doing.

Hope it's something easily fixed by your vet. Good luck.

any updates...praying all is well.

Just got back from the vet and they said she may have pancreatitis . they will do bloodwork & givre her some medications.

I hope this means she is AT the vet??? and they are doing this???

why didn't they do it while she was there....did I misread?

Oh no poor baby. I hope the vet kept her and I'm also praying that she will feel better soon.

They gave her a polyflex injection & famotidine shot. said If the injections doesnt help, they want me to take her back ASAP. Now that she's home she's starting to eat, the vomiting have stopped and no diarrhea so far.

So she has vomited and had diarrhea for one solid week and she is not dehydrated? Your vet did not suggest that you do labs now and did not give fluids?

Pancreatitis is one of the things that crossed my mind after your first post..I was so worried for you and her. You are *truly* lucky she made it (lived) after all that vomiting and diarrhea. We've seen dogs die here from pancreatitis :(.

I'm glad things are improving. So, they did or did not do labs? If they didn't, you really must take her back and get them done. No treatment can be accurate or safe without knowing where her bloods are at - esp after a week of being violently sick.

Also, why didn't they give her subQ fluids...?

Yes, this ^^^. :thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:

glad she has stopped vomiting and having diarrhea poor baby. i hope the meds help. continued prayers.

I just saw your thread today and am so glad you took your dog to the vet. Never wait to take a dog in when it is ill or its behavior changes drastically. It is better to be safe than sorry and catch any illness or pain early.

Has the vet done the blood work yet? If not and she has pancreatitis, you'll need to get that now to see if liver damage is happening and what else is going on and start appropriate treatment and changes in diet.

And how in the world was she not dehydrated? Did the vet give her IV fluids or a subQ bolus of fluid or something?

Please remember that just because a dog is presently eating, drinking and playing that they are recovered and well. Dogs are genetically programmed not to show illness or weakness until they are quite weak and ill so she will try to act normally as long as she can, even though she might be very sick. They fear being attacked or left out by the pack or other predators in the wild if they show illness or any symptom revealing they are not 100% fit, so they "act" normal to try to stay alive.

Here are some links from our YorkieTalk Library for your help, I hope. These can help you know what to look for to keep your dog safe.

Praying your baby gets better soon-

When Peanut had Pancreatitis he had to go to the vet all day Sat, they gave him fluids, then he had to go back all day Sun for more fluids- he was on a strict diet.. His Pancreatitis wasn't really "that" bad- I caught it early.. he only had diarrhea for half a day and threw up a couple times- that day I took him into the vet.

I'm kind of concerned for Bella- I really think she should get fluids. The sub Q fluids are amazing- When I dropped Peanut off he was in bad shape- when I picked him up having all day of fluids I could already see an improvement in him. Fluids are an amazing thing for sick doggies!

Correction: Italicized paragraph is incorrect.

Should read:

How's Bella doing?
