Really Bad Night

[Joannie]

My poor Beaner was throwing up most of the night, and there was quite a bit of fresh blood in it, he was fine all day playing with his ball and eating his meals like always, I was almost ready to take him to the emergency hospital last night, he wouldn't even sleep in bed with the rest of us last night, he slept under the bed. He is a dapple doxie about 7 years old, and if you know anything about doxies, its they like to sleep in bed with you, anyone have any suggestions? I am a wreck, Iam calling my vet as soon as they open. Joannie and the sickies

Joanie I'm so sorry to hear about Beaner. I hope it's nothing serious. Please let us know asap how he is after you visit the vet.
I'll be keeping you both in my thoughts today.
Sorry I couldn't be of any help at all

For sure the best thing is to get Beaner to the vet's office. Is it possible he could have gotten into something toxic? I think anything we might suggest as a cause would just be guessing. Try and stay positive, as hard as that is. We all understand how very worried you are My girls sleep under the bed when they're not feeling well too and it's so upsetting Please check back with us. Lots of good thoughts and prayers oming your way, little Beaner. Sandra

Yes, I do think Beaner's situation warrants a visit to the vet, the sooner the better, but you already knew that. Please let us know what transpires and give our love to dear little Beaner.

I hope Beaner will be ok.
Will be waiting for a update.
Sending many good thoughts your way.

Is he eating or drinking? if not I would be REALLY worried, When RB Jesse (also a mini doxie) got Pancreatitis she started throwing up blood and she wouldn't eat or drink or anything. I hope he'll be okay, let us know. If he's not any better by today I'd take him to see the vet.

Any news on Beaner??? Please check in when you can. Hoping for some encouraging news.

Thinking of Beaner and hoping that he is getting better. Let us know what the vet said, please.

Hi All, I took Beaner into the vet, she drew some more blood, felt around on his abdomen, he didn't tense up or anything[little stinker] last night he was really guarding when I touched his abdomen, he also has a suspiciously looking bloody stool this morning, I took the sample from the vomit as well as the stool sample into the vet, anyway she thinks he has a sever case of gastroenteritis, and started him on some carafate, he is already on pepcid ac, so he's taking both, I'll find out the lab results in the AM. Thank you all for your good wishes for the Bean. Joannie

[KYS]

Thank you for the update.
I will be wishing for a quick recovery for Beaner.

Keep us posted on how the little guy is doing.

One of my doxies was sick a couple of weeks ago with vomiting and diarrhea. Took two trips to the vet for shots and special food. He finally got over it, but we still don't know what it was. Had all four vets really confused for a week trying to figure it out.

Three of our five got sick with whatever it was, but since he has immune problems Max got the sickest.

[anna_66]

I'm glad you updated and he's doing alright. Let us know what the results of the tests are when you get them.

[Joannie]

Well I guess I was hoping for an instant miracle, but it is not to be. My Bean went outside about an hour ago and had alot of diarrhea and then proceded to go throw up his dinner, wish I knew what was wrong, I want to fix it. One good thing, I didn't see any blood. Joannie

{{{hugs}}} to you and Beaner.

Must be something about Doxie stomachs ... our boy hound has a voracious appetite for anything but unfortunately has a delicate tummy that doesn't match with his vacuum mouth.

Hope Beaner is better soon.

[anna_66]

Oh Joanie, I'm sorry to hear he's not feeling well again this am. I do hope the test can tell you what the problem is and get it fixed asap. Prayers for you and Beaner.
