Couver is not doing well... - Page 4 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Britster · 02-03-2015, 07:59 PM

I hope Couver gets back to himself soon! It's SO worrisome to see them like that. I have stressed myself out before only to have it be no big deal so *crosses fingers* that's the case for Couver.

I'm sorry that I missed that Couver has been sick until now. Poor baby I hope he's on the mend now

CouversMom · 02-03-2015, 10:20 PM

Couver made it most of the day and kept things down until just a few minutes ago. He just puked twice and lost a lot of liquid. Poor guy just can't catch a break! I start to think he's feeling better, and then he pukes again

I hope we can get the vomiting to stop soon... He's never been this sick before

Perhaps you should go for an internal med consult?

I'm worried about Couver. I hope that he feels better soon.

Sending lots of love to you and Couver x

Keeping Couver in my thoughts and hoping he recovers soon.

Cha Cha · 02-04-2015, 07:07 AM

Just checking in on Couver and continuing to keep him in my thoughts and prayers.

CouversMom · 02-04-2015, 07:48 AM

He did not puke again after his bout last night. I am hoping we can go 24 hours without a vomiting episode. Keeping up with his meds is proving to be a task. He has two that he has to take twice daily and another that he takes once. All of them have to be separated by 2 hours and he either has to have an empty belly or food with them. I'm thinking I need to make a chart so that I can keep better track of what order I am giving them.

MauiGirl · 02-04-2015, 08:04 AM

Poor Couver.... we are all so worried about him. It can be stressful on you, getting the meds and feeding coordinated, and I think a chart is a good idea. I sure hope he starts improving and that the vets are able to identify exactly what the problem is.

How much does Couver weigh? Has he lost weight during this illness? Keeping him in my prayers.

Poor Couver, lots of thoughts and prayers here for both of you. Jezebel had a bought of vomiting and diarrhea and few months back (after hours, of course) and I took her to the emergency vet. They ended up giving her metronidazole, something to help settle her stomach, sub-q fluids, prescription food, and forti-flora. Maybe you can add some add in some probiotic to keep the intestinal flora in balance, the antibiotic can throw that off.

Couver is normally 7 pounds. He has lost some weight, but not a lot considering how much he has vomited. He hasn't vomited today, but last night it was about 10:30 when he puked the first time. I have been trying to mix lots of water in with his wet food to keep him as hydrated as possible.

yorkietalkjilly · 02-04-2015, 09:59 PM

Is he on Cerenia 8 mg. for nausea and vomiting? That always stops Tibbe's N&V.

MauiGirl · 02-04-2015, 10:23 PM

Hope he starts feeling better soon. So sad when they are sick and you can't figure out why and fix it quick.

Wow just reading this. I am so sorry that your baby is ill. I hope that you get some answers soon.
