Help.. My Munchkin is sick. - YorkieTalk.com Forums

My 1yr old pup was all fine yesterday, but today she had runny poop and at first she vomitted foamy stuff with little red spots (don't know if blood). Then I tried to put her under the hair dryer thinking she might be cold since it has been raining, then she coughed up a lot of mucus.

Has anyone experienced this? Please help and pray that this is just nothing.

Any update? You could feed some boiled chicken breast and rice until she settles. How is her stool? I hope she's feeling better!

This could be dangerous.
I'd run your baby to the vet and get a bile acid test to be sure she doesnt have liver shunt.

My Diva started doing that at the same age, and no one excpet one person recommended this simple test.

Ge sure that she is fasting when you take her to vet so they could get a good reading of blood.

Hope this isnt the case. If it is, its not fatal. But it could be if you ignore the situation.

get blood work and bile acid test pre and post to rule out liver disease - all yorkies should be bile acid tested and having blood test young gives you a base line as well. If your baby has liver issues then join this group as they are very knowledgeable
