Guest Anonymous Posted January 25, 2005 Posted January 25, 2005 last night Zoey started throwing up.. all over the place like 4 times and then i put her in her kennel with a blanket only to wake up this am and see that she threw up more in her kennel, so i cleaned it all out and offered her a little bit of food, which she turned down she's drinking water but then i just put hero ut to go potty again and she projected a water looking stuff out, then i noticed that she has thrown up in the garage a few times also ( they go in here to play and get mud off their feet before they go in the house... ) any ideas of what i can do to help ease her tummy??

Rowie-the-Pooh Posted January 25, 2005 Posted January 25, 2005 Poor Zoey! That doesn't sound fun at all. :( I really can't help, but maybe a trip to the vet is in order? Quote
JackieMaya Posted January 25, 2005 Posted January 25, 2005 You can give her some Pepto Bismol to ease her tummy. Are you sure there wasn't anything in the garage that she could have gotten into? Since she keeps vomiting, I would take her to the vet if I were you. Better safe than sorry! Hope she feels better soon! Quote
kendalyn Posted January 25, 2005 Posted January 25, 2005 With that much vomitting, I would take her to the vet. Quote
imported_Kat Posted January 25, 2005 Posted January 25, 2005 If its been less than 24 hours it sounds like she has scavenged and picked something foreign up which has upset her tummy. Milk of Magnesia is great for upset tummies which I think is along the lines of pepto bismol that you have in America. I would just totally starve her for 24 hours with just water little and often then offer something very light like a half slice of dry toast. Obviously if it continues longer or she gets worse then take her to the vet. Quote
Guest Anonymous Posted January 25, 2005 Posted January 25, 2005 I would see a vet, with that much vomiting there is too much chance for dehydration, until you see the vet I would try to give your dog pedyalite Quote

Guest Anonymous Posted January 25, 2005 Posted January 25, 2005 Nice to hear that your dog is getting better!!! You talked about garage hope your dog didn't have a taste of antifreeze, this is really nasty stuff and it does't take that much to do dammage! For people that don't know: if anybody suspect their pet did drink this don't wait rush to the vet asap. Quote
nadooshkinz Posted January 25, 2005 Posted January 25, 2005 i was going to suggest liquorice juice, but glad to hear she's feeling better :D Quote

Guest Anonymous Posted January 26, 2005 Posted January 26, 2005 Desertlady I think this is a fine and innocent reminder for anyone. Yes it was thanks desertlady, a lot of people don't know the damage it can do, if they would all know I guess nobody would have pets died from antifreeze poisonning, but the facts are a lot of pets are dying from antifreeze poisonning and some of them end up with irreversible kidney damage, but sorry if I offended anybody. http://www.vetmed.wsu.edu/ClientED/antifreeze.asp Quote

This reminds me of the parvo thread where I posted some advice, keeping in mind that many people read this forum and do searches on various topics and also keeping in mind that John Q Public might not be so informed. Instead of being thanked for being concerned, I was lambasted for implying that the people who had posted were being "dumb" ( or at least that's what I got from the tone of the replies.) We get all types here, from very knowledgeable to not very knowledgeable at all. I personally would be thanking Rumi for being concerned and pointing that out, or at least be a bit more gracious about pointing out that I was already aware of that hazzard. Quote
Lucky Chaos Posted January 27, 2005 Posted January 27, 2005 We get all types here, from very knowledgeable to not very knowledgeable at all. To the just plain stupid.... I knew someone who's dog licked some anti-freeze. This one survived, but so many more dogs and cats die just like this. Its a good thing to spread the warning to people who may not know. Quote
