Tawny our husky didn't want to eat last night,just drink drink drink. Started to worry but thought it could be fireworks or the heat(even though she has been in the air conditioning all day!).
So this morning I take her out and she poops three times. Goes from solid to kinda mushy-looked like melted crunch bar texture, to looking like little ribbons. I bring her food out there and she drinks all her water and takes a couple pieces of food. I figured if she was gonna have the runs I would just sit out with her so I go grab a chair and her doggy pool and fill it up. She jumps right in and is trying to drink it faster than its going in.
She then eats a couple pieces of grass and vomits up a ton of water and the couple pieces of dog food she ate.
Problem is this is a dog that hates the vet. She will make herself sick just going for shots. I said a long time ago I would never be able to put her through surgery/boarding/we do shots at home for her, but now I am worried she might have a obstruction and ugh
Would it not be a gradual progression if it was diabetes? This is not a dog I can let out alone so she is the least likely to have gotten into any poison or anything. Its just odd for a dog with an obstruction to want to drink that much right?
She is out there acting fine and I am just bawling She is older but not that old. I think 11. I just have that feeling like when ginger got the lump. I feel like I am just over putting her down.
Vet said if whatever it is doesn't pass bring her in tomorrow- I feel horrible because no matter what she is going to be a mess,unless tonight she is eating and drinking normal again anyway
I don't know what I want -good thoughts and any ideas on what it may be. She has been keeping weight but looking older and gray,and for some reason has a weak topline like a horse gets
