Brynn is puking and has diarrhea...
I am in Atlanta for the week for work, and the girl I have looking after my furkids called me tonight in a panic because Brynn apparently had been vomitting and had diarrhea for the past few hours. All she has had today is a chicken quarter which they split up and fed to her 1/2 in the AM and 1/2 in the PM. There is no blood in her stool, and the vomit is mainly mucous with some bile. I am wondering if maybe she got into something in the yard when they put her outside, so I have asked them to look around the yard tomorrow.
I have instructed her to hold off on B's normal food and give her cooked white rice tomorrow. She was drinking some tonight and when I got off the phone with her a few minutes ago, she hadn't puked or had diarrhea in the past 30 minutes or so.
I am thinking we should see how tomorrow goes, and if it continues through tomorrow I will have them take her to the vet. I hate to rush her to the vet right now, as its not necessarily a dire emergency just because a dog pukes or has diarrhea, on the other hand I certainly don't want my babe sick!
Eep. I think I just needed to share my concern with someone, but if anyone has any advice that would be great, thanks.
