**** I've been gone quite a long time. However I'm still breathing though it's touch and go. Don't expect me to answer or check in much. ****

Welcome to the junkdrawer that is my brain! I know something about many things, and I if I don't know it, I admit that I don't know. That I am constantly finding things I know nothing about and correcting that ignorance keeps me busy and happy. More junk for the drawer.

I love and have experience with many types of animals, including the human. I don't offend easy and I am generally cynical and a smart-butt. I love to drive, read, work on the computer and I spend WAY too much time watching Anime and bidding on ebay.

i rate all fives!

You must get your puppy to the vet. It sounds like he is having problems that only a vet can fix. Your mom did fine giving him pepto, that won't hurt him, but your puppy will dehydrate and die if you can't get the vomitting to stop. Tell your parents that part of responcible pet ownership is to take the pet to the doctor when it's sick. Also that they can be report to ASPCA for neglecting a pet in clear distress. By the way, just because his hip is hurting does not mean that he'll die early. However tell your dad to check and see if he got a health guarenty that states the dog will be free of HIP DISPLAYSIA. This is a common problem inherited by some breeds of pure bred dogs. (Usually the large breeds.) He may be able to get the breeder of your pup to help pay for the vet bills. I'm sorry your puppy is so ill. I hope he gets better.
