Guest freightsmom Posted January 1, 2013 Share Posted January 1, 2013 Poor Kai must have a tummy bug, he had watery poop this morning and his tummy has been gurgling for a day or so. I gave him some Pectlin that I keep on hand around noon. Just now, he vomited again mostly liquid and now has the dry heaves. They have lessened in strength but he is still doing the deep flutters. Wondering how long is it okay to let him do this or should I run him to the ER now? Thanks as always! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BatterseaBrindl Posted January 1, 2013 Share Posted January 1, 2013 If he is trying to throw up but cannot, I would worry he is bloating. And take him in ASAP.

Time4ANap Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 Just now seeing this. Here's a reference chart to refer to for the signs of bloat. Even if he doesn't meet this criteria, at a minimum you want to make sure he isn't dehydrated. http://www.bmd.org/bmdcr/bloat_chart.pdf Quote Camp Broodie.

tbhounds Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 Vet! I'm concerned that he's trying to vomit but, is not producing anything. He needs to be checked ASAP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest borzoix4 Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 I have the same concerns. Trying to vomit and unable too is one of the leading signs of the beginning of bloat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
