Question by snapbail: Are there any vets here? I need advice!!?
Our dog has seen the vet twice this week. He hasn’t eaten in a week and he is vomiting after drinking water. He has had a treatment for whipworms even though none were found in the “sample” just as a precautionary measure. He is having shots for nausea each day but it’s not seeming to help & he can’t keep his antibiotics down. Our vet will use intravenous fluids only as a last resort because the dog doesn’t do well when being “fussed” with. Negative for heartworms. Does anyone have any suggestions to help stop the vomiting in order to stay hydrated? Or any suggestions on what may be wrong with him. How long can a dog go without eating?
