| Benji/advice Benji puked 3 times at home this morning so I decided to take him to the vet.. he also puked on the way there. They took his temperature and said he was running a little bit of a fever. They did an xray and she said she couldn't see any foreign bodies in there, but wanted me to look around the house tonight to see if I can find anything he may have eaten or chewed on. She is going to give him an injection for an upset stomach and they kept him over night. I'm so sad.. she didn't explain much to me.. can anyone tell me some possibilities of what could be wrong with him if its not a foreign body? The only things I could think of is he may have gotten into my frappuchino (i'm not sure if that could harm him or not) or if he licked the advantage off of his sister. Also I'm pretty sure this is going to be an expensive bill.. can anyone give me an estimate of how much their vet charges for an xray just so I can get an idea. Thanks

Donating YT 30K Club Member | He will probably be feeling much better by tomorrow. It could be a virus or something he ate. Xrays by me run about 40-80 dollars depending on what is being xrayed. I would guess the visit, hospitalization etc will run you $150-250

| Thank you for your advice and prayers.. their explanation was that yorkies have sensitive stomachs and the smallest thing can make them vomit.
