Maggie is sick Maggie went in for dental on Friday, she had a small tooth on the top, front removed. The vet said it was loose and it was best to remove it. He sent her three doses of Ketofen syrup to be taken the next three days. She was fine until Sunday evening when she started throwing up brown bile that looked like it small sticks in it. I caught her playing in the mulch and eating it earlier. She threw up several times and finally settled down. DH took her to the vet yesterday and she got Sub-Q Fluids, injection of Cerenia, and an injection of Buprenorphine. She was sent home with three vials of Buprenorphine. She was drugged all yesterday evening. She hasn't eaten or drank anything since yesterday, DH said she drank some water right after they returned from the vet. She won't lay down, almost like her stomach hurts, her poo is still somewhat runny. She sits and looks back at her butt. If she's not better when the vet opens, she will go back. Meanwhile, does anyone have any suggestions?? |
Hoping and praying she does well at the vet's. So sorry this is happening to her and you and DH. Sounds like she may have a blockage or a partial blockage. Praying it's not... |
So sorry. Hope she is better soon. It sounds like something in the mulch that she ate maybe? |
Jeanie, I am sorry to hear Miss Maggie is sick. :( Is she doing any better this morning? Praying for her. |

I went to work to get my work laptop so I could work from home. She was sitting when I left, she was sitting when I got back, and she's still sitting. She didn't meet me at the door when I got back home. I noticed she peed on the steps that lead to the bed, that is not like her at all. I'm waiting for 9:00 then I'm heading to the vet's office. |
Katy Yorkie, I suggest you take some of the mulch with you when you go to the vet. There is a type of mulch that can be bad for dogs. I think it's the red colored mulch but not sure. I just remember reading an article on Yahoo about it. Hope the vet can find out what is bothering her. |
She could possibly have a sliver of mulch that is stuck/blocking her intestine....I would get her to a vet...ER vet....immediately for abdominal xrays. She needs to be rehydrated again if she is not drinking...This really needs to be checked ASAP....if she has a stick that has obstructed her bowel, or possibly maybe even perforated her bowel, this can deteriorate quickly, especially if bowel content has leaked into her abdominal cavity. I would insist on an abdominal xray, for my own piece of mind, if nothing else!.....I have done that before. (I forgot today is not the weekend, so I recommended the ER vet!-sorry) |
prayers for maggie..i hope they find out what is bothering her. |

isnt there a mulch that is actually made from coco or something that you are suppose to keep your pets away from, because it is posinous? I could be wrong but I swear I read it on a forum. IM really sorry your furbaby is sick. Hoping she feels better soon. I know how hard it is to watch them be so ill. :( |
