Plymgreys Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 It'ls about 8:45pm here. Lottie has not eaten this evening and has just vomited pink frothy vomit with little specks of what looks like blood. I am about to ring the vet (thankfully our surgery is 24hrs) but I just wondered if there's anything anyone can suggest. Sheesh what a birthday present. Quote I used to think Dara O'Briain was funny.

Plymgreys Posted February 9, 2009 Author Share Posted February 9, 2009 (edited) I've spoken to the vet. Could be a tummy bug. Being sick can cause blood minor blood vessels to burst giving the pink colour to vomit. It could however be an ulcer. As this is the first time Lottie's been sick it's early days if it is an ulcer. They gave us the choice of coming in now or monitoring overnight. We have an appointment in the morning but if anything happens overnight we are to take her straight in. Thanks argolola and Burpdog, it's appreciated. Will let you know. Edited February 9, 2009 by Plymgreys Quote I used to think Dara O'Briain was funny. Now I know better.

Plymgreys Posted February 9, 2009 Author Share Posted February 9, 2009 (edited) We've just got back from the vet. They're keeping her overnight for obs and fluids as she's dehydrated and running a temp. They gave her 3 injections while we were with her and she's going to have some tablets when the injections have kicked in. I HATE leaving my dogs at the vets overnight. Fingers crossed for a quiet night and a good morning. Edited February 9, 2009 by Plymgreys Quote I used to think Dara O'Briain was funny. Now I know better.

Plymgreys Posted February 10, 2009 Author Share Posted February 10, 2009 Vet just rang. She hasn't been sick overnight and she's taken no fluid by mouth but she's been on a drip. They were just about to see if she would eat. Vet says her tummy is still very sore so they are keeping her in today for further obs and if no improvemnt further investigation. Vet (very nice girl) says she not unduly worried and that Lottie's just had a "bit of a bleed" which when I asked is slight ulcerration from an inflamed stomach lining which normally responds very well to the drugs Lottie's had. Ho hum. A dogless day. Don't know what to do now. Maybe I'll get the hoover out while Lottie's not here coz she hates the hoover. Quote I used to think Dara O'Briain was funny. Now I know better.

Bevd Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 Awwww, it's horrid when they are at the vets and even more horrid when you don't quite know what the problem is. Today is definately the day for hoovering and doing boring dog bed washing and dog toy washing and all those other things which are vile Quote Deerhounds Darcy, Duffy, Grace & Wellington, Mutts Sprout & Buddy, Lurchers Ned & Jake plus Ella the Westie + cats.
