I don't work. I just quit two weeks ago to move from Misery (Missouri) to California but I still don't see why he's having diarrhea. He didn't have it when he went in, just vomiting. They said diarrhea was normal and were happy that his blood sugar was staying normal but he stopped eating the prescribed diet at 11:30 a.m. yesterday. I think he was just starving this afternoon and finally broke down and ate some. I am going to go ahead to the vet and see what he thinks. I think it's always good to get a second opinion and I will ask about Giardia or a liver shunt.
I don't think I mentioned that he actually chews on his mouth like there's something in there before he starts the lovely hurling noise and then I have a few seconds to get him to the pad before he opens his mouth really big like he's trying to vomit around something. Keep in mind, he only does this at night so I just don't know. During the day, he's fine. At night, after he's not eaten much, it's throw up and diarrhea city. The diarrhea smells like the prescription food, is the same color and is all liquid. There is no solid to it. --- In [email protected], [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > > I'm just wondering what happened to the diet the vet prescribed when this > pup was sent home?
