He could be having a pancreatic episode and if you entice him to eat anything, it will only be more painful for him and it can kill him! Chester has pancreatitis and had an episode yesterday. He wouldn't eat and his tummy was very LOUD and the growling just went on and on. He was distressed, but I've seen him worse off, but I'd hate to have you make the mistakes I made. I tried to entice Chester to eat during past episodes cause I didn't know what was wrong with him. He'd usually end up eating cause I'd cook him something really good (salmon, beef, etc.) and I found out that's the worst thing I could do.
Talk about feeling like a bad mother! Nothing like knowing you've permanently damaged your pup's tummy, pancreas and kidneys!
Oh, and we have major allergy problems, too. Seems like one dog can't have any more problems and then he does! :eek:
Hope Simba feels better soon!
It actually sounds like a little birdy is in his tummy chirping. My dad said he thought there was a little kid in the house.
