I have a sick dog


Question Posted Sunday January 4 2009, 12:51 pm

I have a six year old dog, who is refusing to eat, she is barely drinking. She will not walk on her own, as her body is very weak. She is vomiting, and has thrown up blood. She will randomly shake, and she is loosing weight only in her neck area, and legs. Yet, she has not shown any sign of pain.
Can anyone tell me what may be wrong with her, or even what would cause these things?

You need to take her to the vet, IMMEDIATELY!!!!!!!!! Dogs dont show their pain like we do, im sure she is hurting. She cant fill out paper work and go to the vet by herself. If you refuse to take her to the vet and she dies, that can be considered animal cruelty/abuse, and you can be fined or even given jail time.

I agree with DN that your dog desperately
needs to see a vet. I had a dog something
similar happened to. He didn't vomit blood,
he didn't vomit anything though he tried to.

As it turned out he had twisted intestines.
Something they said was common in dogs like
him. They also looked for something blocking
his intestines. They said chew toys were a
common cause though he'd had none of those.

Please, take your pet to a vet soon!

Hello there,

This is deadly serious business for your dog. Dogs don't say "ouch" unless they are being stepped on usually, but trust me when I say that vomiting over a long enough period to lose weight and throwing up blood don't feel very good.

The only answer that can be given to you is this: Take your dog to the vet... today. Tomorrow may be to late to have her make a full recovery.

It could be anything. She could have been poisoned by something, have parasites or be otherwise near death.

If you care about this puppy dog at all, please take her to the vet.

If it was you with these symptoms... YOU would want someone to take care of YOU, right? Well it falls to you to take care of your doggy.

Please, when you leave feedback, let me know what the vet said and how she is doing.

Thank you,

DN.
