Sorry to put this in chat, but I know it gets more traffic then other parts of the forum.
Sooo Here's the scoop.
2 weekends ago Brody helped himself to the bathroom trash and had a feast on tampons
I do not have any way of knowing how many. He somehow opened up the bathroom door that was now closed due to incident #1 and had some more.
He was pooping a lot. Some very mushy wet stools and some firm. There was indeed fiber material in the poops. So I was feeling pretty confident that he would pass them all w/ out a problem. acting fine/eating & drinking fine as well.
Fast forward to Friday. Fed him w/ a new bag of food just bought (same as he was fed before, just a new bag).
Saturday I stumbled upon a section of wet carpet that he must have thrown up on. Nothing to unusual, he can be a very agressive drinker and drink himself until he barfs. Acting fine all day, but is hessitent to eat his food unless you stand right next to him.
Sunday comes around and he ate his food and was still drinking a lot of water. Very active playing in the yard. Another wet spot on the carpet. Now I'm starting to think something is up.
He's peeing/pooping and playing/acting just like normal. Only difference is he's drinking a lot of water and threw it up once a day. Just liquid and bile.
Monday, still acting fine. Get home from work and he did a normal poop, but was a little slow moving. Drank lots of water and threw up. At this point he's becoming fairly slow and just wants to lay w/ me.
We do some talking about the situation and realize he only started showing these signs since we fed him from the new bag of food. So we offer him some to eat last night and he ran over to the bowl and put his face in and imediatly pulled away. You could tell he was hungry and wanted to eat, but wouldn't eat his food. I offered him some carrots and a could treats which he gobbled right up.
Due to my work schedual/job I was unable to take him to the vets today or even get a call into them. I'm going to call as soon as I'm out of work to discuss this all w/ them but I was hoping to hear some of you guy's input.
I know it was a long read.
Also i appologize...spell check doesn't work for me and I'm a terrible speller
