Question

My dog is throwing up bile because she did not eat yesterday so she is empty. Last night during the night she passed bloody stool. Should I take her immediately to the vet or did she eat something dead and this too will pass.

Just her normal dog food but she goes outside and could have gotten into anything

Accepted Answer

Dear friend,

 

I am concerned bout the bloody stool and the vomiting.

 

 

She may have colitis or Pancreatitis:

She may have ingested a toxin.

 

I would err on the side of caution and have her seen ASAP.

 

Please let me know how she is doing. I hope she feels better very soon.

 

Sincerest best wishes for her,

erri
