Help! Still vomitting after Vet visit! - YorkieTalk.com Forums

stivCoffee · 10-17-2007, 09:30 AM

I need some advice. Coffee started to throw up this morning. It was a few hours apart. But after the third time, I took him to the Vet. They think it's a stomach flu...and gave him 2 shots, one to stop vomiting. He also gave Coffee fluid meds for me to administer 3 times a day. That was 7 hours ago. Since then, Coffee vomited 4 more times. He don't seem to be getting any better. I shoot the meds down his throat in a syringe. But I'm not sure if he actually ingested it because after 30minutes, he will puke. although the vomit is clear with foam... It's 11pm here and I'm still watching him closely. What should I do to comfort him and make sure he's getting better?
I forget to add that he didn't poop all day today and only pee twice after coming back from the vet.

pls help,
steve

You may want to have a look at our thread " Dazed and confused-sick yorkie " there are a lot of similarities however we still have no logical explanation. And Rusty is now playing happily and at peace with his brothr Rags, at the Rainbow Bridge, waiting paitiently,
Sincerly wish you luck, and may the Good Loord as I said look out for you little Yorkie.

Coffee is doing better now. The vet gave us meds for him 3 times a day. He stop vomiting after 2 days. The vet says there's a flu going around our neighborhood. So we'll try to keep him indoors until he's 100% better. Thanks for the well wishes.
