We woke up Sunday to a sick dog JOHN was not eating or drinking water, because of the heat here at the moment i started putting water down his throat he would vomit it up along with a white muck, he has trouble swolling , on the saturday afternoon before this he stoll a (milupa) vegie i had picked from the garden he ran away with it and ate it , it was eather that , a cane toad ,or some one baited him . So he is at the vets for 4 days to be rehydrated and to try to find the reason for his illness .they tested his blood but no virus so that was good news. ALL donations are tax deductable lol
That's something like what happen to our pup, he could not eat solids, kept yelping every time we fed him had to mash his food up with water. and was in vets for 4 days, had a throat infection and his blood pallett was low. when we got him home he was like that for 3 weeks still throws up now and again.
Neil, there is a vet not far from you up by Edelweiss just before, coming from your place It is called Cats & Dogs. last Block on the Right before the main Road opposite to Hypermart. DMD Pad, Bagacay Vet is Michelle OLART. 420 9057 or 0917 722 4274 I certainly recommend her JP
Thanks Jack, i went there but the vet was not there so we went to Acuna in piapi they were vere good. John hsa a viral infection and not much chance of survival. I had a Askal in the Phipippines before and he only had rabbies and worming.i was never aware that the had to be vaccinated and JSohn was never done. So a big lesson has been learnt, they will try a bit more treatment if he is no better in 2 days ill have him put down
I'm sorry to hear this Neil. Do you mean that he had only the rabies vaccination and de worming but is not vaccinated for distemper? His brother is doing fine but since reading this I keep a closer watch on him.
Hi m8 yes only rabies n worming , what he should have had was parvo vaccine it should be given every 4 weeks from 6 weeks of age till 18 weeks of age i did not know this local dogs have immunity to it and dont need it, rottwieler are the worst breed to be effected by it . i would get your dog done m8 as once he show signs of it its to late, he may got it from playing with the local dogs, i read it can be carried by ticks, rats mice. sad house here at the moment
Sorry about John, dogs are family too. Sending good thoughts and hope he makes it. He is great hands at Acuna.
Sad to hear of Big John's troubles and sure hope for a full recovery, I know you are very close to him. You might think about slipping him a spoon of sitver twice a day it saved my Rotty's life.
