Fenway's Sick - Is this Okay to Feed Him?

[elizabethann]

Fenway had diareah last night (he pooped in the kitchen) and when I came home tonight, he had pooped in the kitchen again. He didn't eat his breakfast & he didn't want to go to doggy day care (he was sad & pouting). He played a little tonight & I took him for a quick walk where he pee'd and pooped diareah again.

I cooked him some eggs & some turkey tonight thinking that may calm his tummy. What do you think? He hasn't eaten it yet.

I will call the vet if he doesn't get better by tomorrow.

What do you think is wrong with him? Any opinions? I hope he'll be okay.

I hope he is okay. Maybe just a little cooked rice.. Sometimes turkey will give the runs.. Especially cooked.

Yep, try some rice. I hope Fenway gets to feeling better soon.

Just plain old white rice or should I get whole wheat or something?

[Kater]

Plain white rice would be best if you can get him to eat it. Otherwise I would just fast him for 24 hrs.
Brown rice, or turkey & eggs will probably be too hard on his tummy right now.

Now he just threw up. Maybe about a 1/2 of cup. It was all yellow & white. I'm really worried about him. I'm not sure if I should wait till 8am tomorrow morning & call the vet or go to the emergency room. What do you think I should do? :(

[chocolatepuppy]

Did he eat before he threw up? Can you at least call the emergency vet? Usually they will give you some insight as to what to do.

Try Pegilight. Thats what I use with mister when he is throwing up or has diherra. Just a little and I water it down. I get the unflavored kind and it really works. Hope that helps.....

Yikes! I'm sorry Fenway is not feeling well.

Is Fenway feeling any better. I am not a Doctor (but I did sleep in a Holiday Inn last night), but my dogs have always been OK in a day or so if they just had diarreah and/or threw up - especially, the clearish yellow junk. Its when you start seeing bllod in stools or convulsions that you usually need to rush or call a vet. Let us know. :(
