My dog will not EAT anything, Help?

Question

Seen two different vets. X-ray taken of digestive tract, blood tests ran, urine and feces tested. does drink some water. Vomits at 4:00 am yellow bubbley stuff. Got her on antibiotic, anti inflamatory, and something for stomach. Force feed here peanut butter ,vitamine rich paste, and dog similac. get a few drops down she protests. She does not vomit up force fed stuff. she is weak and walks gingerly

vets haven't found anything wrong.

Answer 1

When my dog has an upset tummy, this is what my vet said to do... Keep him off ANY food for 24 hours. Make sure he does drink, though. Then feed him PLAIN chicken or hamburger and rice for several days. I cook the skinless chicken breasts right in with the rice so it has some flavoring. My dog likes it.

Of course, I have no way of knowing WHAT is really wrong with your dog. Since she hasn't been eating, keeping her off food for 24 hours probably is NOT a good idea.

I can't believe that TWO vets can't figure it out. It seems quite serious -- if I were you, I'd be looking for a third vet... In the meantime, keep up with the vitamin paste and whatever else you can get into her. Keep her warm and try not to let her get stressed.

Your poor dog! I'm so sorry. I sure hope you find out what's wrong with her soon. Could you let us know, somehow?

And BTW Sophylakes, walking 'gingerly' means walking lightly, with caution. So she CAN be weak and walk gingerly. Just so you know...

Answer 2

Hold the dog and soothe him, petting him and speaking lightly to him. have a small bowl of dog chow nixed with a few rainy puppy meals and water to make a slurry. If no rainy meals simply use water. When he is calm, take a look at hand feeding him. If he eats, provide him extra. He would possibly not starve however hypoglycemia or low blood sugar is a challenge. If he begins staring, turns into listless take a look at a few karo syrup on his tongue. if he turns into non responsive or would possibly not take the syrup name the vet. But he is also in poor health, what are his stools like? Has the breeder performed any de-worming? Worms can rationale what you're seeing. He might have a bloodless. So many matters might be inflicting the indications you are seeing. A vet is your quality resolution Hope you and dog have an extended comfortable like in combination

Answer 3

I'm sure I can't suggest anything that the two vets haven't thought of. I'd just try another vet. The yellow foamy stuff that she vomits is the mucus that lines the stomach and just indicates that the stomach is empty. Has to be pain involved here if you can't entice the dog with anything.

Answer 4

Dogs are fans of Cheese. Rip up some american cheese and hand feed it to her. It may give her gas but it will keep her alive. Try that with sandwich meat also. Have you tried Feeding her moist dog food.
Best of wishes .
Amen.
