Scary for sure Valerie. The last time I looked at the Dingo brand, it said that they were not manufactured here. I think they are made in Brazil? But it says distributed in US.
You may want to give one to your Vet so he can send it out to be analyzed. I know to test a dogs blood for toxicity is a separate blood test. The regular blood test only shows a couple of common virus's and bacteria's. So if your gut feeling is that it is the rawhide, then either further blood test could be done or send the rawhide out and have that tested. It could very well be a bad lot, and may save a lot of other dogs from getting sick. Then you can put in a claim in with Dingo and have them reimburse you for the Vet fees and or sue them, if the test come back positive. I sure hope it passes though and quickly. -------Original Message------- From: Valerie Mockett Date: 3/3/2011 7:16:41 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [Chihuahuas] Freaked out... My last dog was a doxi and she would have these type of problems at least once a year. One time all she had was blood and a mucus coming out. The vet always gave her liquids and flagel. within a few day she would be better. valerie --- On Thu, 3/3/11, [email protected] <[email protected]> wrote: From: [email protected] <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [Chihuahuas] Freaked out...

That is strange. I can't imagine one treat doing that unless there is something wrong with the treat itself, or if he is allergic to it. What kind of treat did you give him? Gigi does not shake like she use to. As long as I feed her twice a day she is fine. If I don't feed her in the morning and try putting it off to noon, then she gets shaky, which tells me her sugar level is dropping. Once I feed her she is fine again. I would suggest that if the diarrhea doesn't clear up within 2 days to call the Vet again, but if he does the shaking and panting again, I would run him to the Vet. It is strange and I wish I could help more. Giving him the Nutra-Cal while he has the diarrhea will most certainly help and prevent dehydration. I always keep a tube in the refrig because you never know with these little ones. -------Original Message------- From: [email protected] Date: 3/2/2011 11:45:59 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [Chihuahuas] Freaked out... Monster isn't feeling well. It started a few hours ago and all he did was throw up except nothing came out. I figured it was because yesterday I gave him this treat that he hadn't had in a while. But not too long ago I was holding him for a little while and I noticed he was shaking really bad so I wrapped him in a blanket, thinking he was cold but it didn't seem to help. Then all of a sudden he started panting and breathing really hard. That is what's freaking me out. He also just had really bad diarrhea. But now he's laying on his bed just looking like he doesn't feel good but he's not shaking or panting anymore. I don't know what to think... I'm so worried about him. I called my vet when he started panting and got the emergency vets number but then he stopped. What do yall think happened? Has anyone ever had this happen to your dogs?
