with Cali not eating. Ever since she went into heat Sunday it has been a battle to get her to eat. I have tried everything. Today all she would eat was a little hamburger. I have fed her 3 times and twice she ate nothing. She is quieter than usual but will play for awhile. I posted a thread earlier to see if this could all be a result of being in heat but I didn't get an answer. Has anyone experienced this with a dog in her first heat? Thanks

Brandy is in her first heat cycle (at 19 months old, wierd huh?). Anyway her behavior is definitely different. Quite, sedentary, less playful, a bit grumpy. Her appetite is fine though. It wouldn't surprise me if loss of appetite is related to heat though. Is Cali very tiny?

She's 4lbs. This morning she wouldn't eat again and then threw up bile twice. I 'm calling the vet. Thanks for responding.

I got back from the vet and they think it's her heat cycle that is causing her to not eat and be lethargic. They gave me a medicine for vomiting and one to settle her stomach. She ate a little chicken but that's it. I hope she starts feeling better soon!
