    Default dog throwing up!

    Popppy has been sick for 3 days now.
    Tried starving her for 48hrs to see if that would help, but, looking to give her a light meal tonight...
    Just fried chicken breasts to seal them and now simmering them in a pan with a bit of water...
    Would it be a good idea to give her some tonight or should I wait until tommorrow?
    She didnt want her usual dinner but is drinking ok.
    Think she ate something the cat dragged home dead that started this bout of sickness off!
    Thats labs for you
    Cooking especially for the dog ...as if I dont have enough to do!

    Sounds like you need to speak to the vet.
    Bringing back something indigestible is fine, but being sick for 3 days sounds a bit more serious.
    Vets are available 24/7 over the phone, just give them a ring.
    I called them at 3 in the morning before. If it's not an emergency then maybe tomorrow morning will do rather than waking the vet up...

    Aw poor Poppy!

    Has starving her helped? If so, it would be a good idea to give her a wee bit of chicken now to see how she gets on. Wouldn't have fried it though as the oil may be a bit heavy for her delicate tum.

    The homeopathic remedies Arsen Alb or Nux Vomica could help as well?

    Does she seem okay in herself?

    If it carries on it would a good idea to get her to the vets for an anti-sickness injection.
    However, it's good that she's drinking okay as she won't get dehydrated.

    Get well soon Poppy.xxx

    Only sealed them in the olive oil to keep the juices in.
    Simmered them in just water...
    Think dead mouse guts/intestines caused the problem.
    But she can be sick for 2/3 days at a time after eating something stupid!
    It was just she was looking for something to eat and was going to raid the bin if nothing was forthcoming.... and I dont want to wake up to a back place covered in spew again!

    Still think it would be better without any oil at all Dadie as her tum sounds really sensitive after chomping on the mouse.

    Give her a wee bit though as it is a really good sign that she is looking for food now.Do you have any live yogurt as this can be quite soothing?
    It's a pity you don't live near to me as I have some Slippery Elm tablets you could have had. They're really good for bowg upsets.

    Here's hoping for a spew free night!

    Something really easy for her to digest after her mouse feast is cornflour....made the way you make custard, but don't add sugar....this will line her digestive tract and she should keep it down....usually dogs love it.

    Yes boiled rice with a little chicken is also good as well as oatmeal made into a thin gruel, egg white....there are lots of simple tummy settlers.

    Boiled chicken and rice is meant to be nice and delicate on the stomach. However 3 days is worrying, I would be back seeing the vets. Hope she is doing better.

    Ate 2 mouthfulls of chicken last night and threw up 4!
    She left the rest...was still sitting in her bowl this morning...gave her fresh chicken tonight....its not been touched...which is odd as she is usually a hoover on legs.
    mentioned the VET to her
    Still drinking and peeing normally
    So if still not eating or/and throwing up by tommorrow morning the vet will get called !

    Aw poor wee thing!

    Afraid it is definitely time for a trip to the Vet. Maybe a bit of the moose has become stuck?
