She could still be trying to rehydrate after vomiting this morning. Like Crystal said, if her pee is still brownish (not yellow) after all this drinking, then you'd want to bring her in to check her urine.

Did her vomit this a.m. smell like poo or anything? Poor honey!

i just offered her yet more water and she drank alot again.

WHAT is going on? This is veeeeerrrrry unusual!!!!!!!

broodizt · 08-06-2008, 09:39 AM

her urine wasnt exactly brown really- it was kind of yellowish with a veeeerrrry light stain of brownish in one small part of the urine

Well, that's good that it was yellow. I would watch for the next pee to see what's really going on. I would [try] not to worry too much - I know it's hard not to worry about these babies. But, since she's been doing so darn well - and *just* had a trip outside somewhere and then all of this happened, it does make me wonder if she snuck something in her mouth - and she's getting over it today.

She is drinking a lot of water, that's for sure. But, keep an eye on her pee and go from there. It sounds like her behavior is good - so this is good too.

thanks. as you can tell i'm terrified. ill try not to worry too much

Ellie May · 08-06-2008, 09:56 AM

Is she peeing a lot in small amounts or just average?

The brown spot, are you sure it wasn't red?
Watch closely for more brown.

broodizt · 08-06-2008, 10:01 AM

no, her vomit did not smell like poo to me.

i left her for a few seconds in her pen to see if she would urinate, but she didnt. instead she started barking for me to pick her up. a good sign i think and hope!

broodizt · 08-06-2008, 10:09 AM

no, i just checked again Crystal, no red, just a slight tinge of brown, veeery slight-in one part of her urine. just offered her some more water and she drank some MORE. not as much as before, but still quite a lot for her. more than she might drink in a whole day, and thats just this last drink, not counting the others

broodizt · 08-06-2008, 10:13 AM

she stlll hasnt urinated yet-since after the last time- after all that drinking! hard to believe! it's gotta come soon-it just has to. her little body can only hold so much urine before she has to go. she's only 2.4 lbs full grown!

donnarod · 08-06-2008, 10:18 AM

Hope she will be just fine. Keep us posted.

broodizt · 08-06-2008, 11:02 AM

okay,

Cassie just urinated and it was mostly clear with a slight tinge of yellow in one spot. I spoke to the guy in the natural foods pet store and he says he doubts that it would be the food since the last time I fed her before she threw up was about 4-5 oclock yesterday for dinner and she didn't vomit till about 7:3o this morning before breakfast or any food. he said it would all have been digested by then, so he doubts would be the food.

Occasionally, you will hear someone say that "raw can be too rich" for them, which is not necessarily the case.

Hope she is just fine!!!

The stomach doesn't hold the contents that long, how could they purge food from 2 weeks ago? The stomach empties into the large intestine within hours. Are you suggesting that the dog is vomiting the contents of the large intestine? It's much more likely that the food given yesterday didn't agree with the dog for whatever reason.

broodizt · 08-06-2008, 11:15 AM

she just refused some water, so i think she s had enough

broodizt · 08-06-2008, 11:25 AM

i think what luvmysissy meant was that from what Ive been told when switching to raw from another diet the body may go through a purging period if the previous diet was mainly a poor one of commercial dog food. I guess this can happen for a certain number of weeks before our babies get the old toxins completely out of the body. But Cassie was not on commercial dog food, I was home feeding her and so she really did not have any diahreah or a bad reaction the the raw. I switched her immediately from one to the other and she seemed just fine. Not really sure what the heck happened. I hope and pray it is subsiding. It seems to be so, at the moment. I will feed her lunch soon and see if she holds that down. :-)
