What a night...*UPDATE*

[Sharpeigirl]

What a night I had last night.. 3 am Sassy is awake & whining in her crate. I thought she needed to pee since she's got another UTI. Took her out, she didn't go. Brought her inside. Left her out of the crate while I went to the bathroom. Came out, and she was throwing up. Everything she ate yesterday was brought back to life. Not once, but 3 times.. Then she has a very messy poopie on the floor. She had it coming out of both ends. Finally I guess she'd gotten it all out of her system, she walked into her crate & promptly passed out. Leaving me to clean up puke & poop at 3 in the morning.. Oh the joys of dog ownership.. Could it of been a reaction to the antibiotics? She's on 250mg of the genaric version of Baytril(Sp). Last time she didn't have such an adverse reaction to it.. And she's only had 4 pills so far. Should I stop giving them to her & call the vet tomorrow?

i'm with Michele in tis call your vet before you thinking to chenge anything with her medicin
also i think it's a posibilty that this time she didn't take the antibiotics to well but first of all ask your vet
good luck don't forget to tell

I agree call your vet How is Sassy now

Unless she has a really sensitive stomach (which she does doesn't she?) I doubt it would be the baytril. Lucky was on it for a foot infection, and he has a really sensitive stomach too with no bad effects. My rat girls are also on Baytril for a respiratory infection, ad no side effects either. I would call the vet too.

I would call the vet. I cannot take quite a few different antibiotics. some make me throw up, some give me diarrhea....sounds like your pup.

:o

This just keeps getting more & more strange.. She has yet to get a drink of water today. I just gave her fresh & she just sniffed at it & walked away.. She shows no intrest in eating. She usally hovering over me when I eat something. She's curently asleep in her crate again. I'm going to make a trip to the vet tomorrow and have her checked out.. I hope it's just the antibiotics and nothing else..

Call your vet, maybe you can give her some pepto bismo to help sooth her stomach a little bit. We were told to once, when smoke had the flu (which is exactly what your describing).

[imported_Kat]

Yes if this has just suddenly flared up after giving antibiotics, she could well be sensitive to them. Baytril is a good antibiotic but giving the generic version isn't the same as actual baytril and therefore its more likely to be harsh on her sensitive stomach.

Hopefully she will get back on track soon :wink:

Well she's better today.. The vet told us to hold off on the meds for 2 days & start up again. And if she throws up when she goes back on them they'll change her meds. She back to her old bitchy self :-? Barking at everything..

[behle]

Glad to hear Sassy is feeling better! :D

[imported_Irena]

happy to hear she's some back to herself :D

[Sharpeigirl]

:-? I put her back on the meds & she's sicker then before.. Gah, I'm taking her to the vet tomorrow for a full work up.. This is so strange.. If I skip a day she's fine, but if I give them every day she get really sick.. So I don't know what's up.. She got sick on the last antibiotics also, but not this badly..

[imported_Irena]

well i guess she don't like the meds i hope she will fell better with the new ones

[JackieMaya]

Poor Sassy! I hope the vet can figure out what the problem is and get her back to feeling well.

[Sharpeigirl]

I don't know what is going on with her, but she's still not herself. She's on new meds, but she's still refuseing food. Vet said tempt her with "human foods" I got her to eat a tiny bit of Turkey, but that;'s about it. I'm going to try to boil up some rice and some chicken today & see if I can get her to eat some of it. Vet didn't find anything pyhsicaly wrong with her. Blood work is normal. we're just stumped..
