Please Answer Fast!!

Answer 1

How long as this been going on for.

At least try to phone the vets to see if they can help over the phone.

Live on bread and water for a week your dog deserves your support in this time of great need.

Please phone the vets ASAP

Answer 2

it would help if u told us what shes been eating in the past few hours

Answer 3

Awe, im sorry to hear that :(

Okay, umm, you coudl look it up, on google

I would say though

if you give him/her 'human' food, refrain from it, none at all.  untill he/she is okay again.

It could just be a little flu my dogs had that before,

but do you have a relative you could borrow money from for now?

I hope all goes well ♥

Answer 4

Replace its water with the baby non-flavored pediolyte,let it drink all it wants.Also put a dab on honey or Karo syrup on its tongue to elevate sugar level.Try boiling some chicken,cut into small pieces ,put in blender with small amount of water and puree it,most dogs will eat this when nothing else.If the pet hasn't been dewormed lately,this could be the cause of the neausea and diarrhea.If this continues after giving the pediolyte have the pet checked by a vet,as could be the beginning of Parvo if vaccinations haven't been given.If a small pup and not eating,you must force feed .

Answer 5

Get a bank loan! Hurry!!! GO GO GO!! Have a good night.

Answer 6

Try calling all local humane societies, many have free or reduced price clinics.

Answer 7

Your dog might have a tumor somewhere on it's body. I had a dog named Snoopy that had a tumor on her side, she got worms and was throwing up. We ended up putting her down 2 years later. If not, I would strongly suggest that you call a vet and ask them what is wrong with her and what they recommend.

Answer 8

If it is on wet dog food that would be the reason for diarrhea.......but if your dog isn't on wet dog food if u can afford it put your dog on wet dog food its easier to digest!!!! Keep your dog hydrated and just show her love and wait a couple days if she does not get better you might be forced to take it to the vet....sorry......:(.......hope your dog feels better soon.........

Answer 9

I live on a farm and usually my pa just has to "dispose" of the animals if they're too sick because the vet is often more expensive than a new animal.  He uses a rifle but we live in the country so that's ok.  I don't think you can do that in the city.

Answer 10

First of all, this sounds very serious and needs to be seen by a veterinarian ASAP.  Call your veterinarian and see if they do "care credit" this is a form of a loan that you can get for vet. care etc.... Vomiting and Diarrhea can be a sign of many things, and usually are very serious, can be a foreign object leading to obstruction, Parvo ( check for blood in stool) and any number of other things, both will lead to dehydration and needs to be treated right away ( usually with IV fluids since the dog can not keep anything down. Drooling is usually a sign of nausea and can also be a sign of a toxin. DOG NEEDS TO BE SEEN ASAP.  

Answer 11

Call a vet and tell them you don't have the money to come in.  Ask THEM what it could be... they'll probably want a description of the throw up - and diarreah etc...

Good luck

Answer 12

This sounds very serious. Perhaps you should give the dog away to a person who can better afford her. That sounds harsh, but it would be best for the dog.

Answer 13

I mean no offence by this at all, but if you can't afford a vet, why are you keeping a dog? She needs medical attention. It sounds like she may have ingested a poison. The PDSA offer low cost medical care. Get her to a vet fast.

Answer 14

She could have eaten some type of poison, she could have bloat, or any number of things.  

Honestly, nobody can diagnose her or tell you what to do, but a vet.

Call your Humane Society, sometimes they have a low-cost vet.

Call your vet or emergency clinic, see if they offer Care Credit, that lets you pay off the bill over monthly installments.

Answer 15

sweetie you need to seriously take your dog to a vet. Call your local shelter they maybe able to point you in the right direction if they can't help you. Keep her hydrated push liquids and you can give her gatorade no acidity kinds though. Did she eat any bones? What was she doing before she got sick? Call someone immediately.

Answer 16

Remove ALL food as her intestines will need time to heal after the diarrhea, and try to get her to drink water.  She may throw it up, but without it, she could dehydrate and die.  You owe it to your animal to, at the very least contact a veterinarian, tell them you have a sick animal, but cannot afford to bring her in.  Keep calling vets until you find one that will see your dog.  When she is better, you really should consider looking for a new home for her, it would be in her best interest to have a home that can afford to take care of her.  Sorry to sound mean, but part of the responsibility of having a pet, is to ensure you can afford it's medical needs.

Answer 17

It could be parvo...quick to the vet

or SPCA to surrender it if you won't/can't treat.

Get payment plan from your vet if you can't up front the cost but you could be sentencing your dog to death by waiting

Answer 18

I'm not sure what else you can do but take her to the Vet.  Some Vet's make a payment plan so you can pay what you can.

Answer 19

you didn't say how old dog is .if it is a puppy it could be parvo. if it is an older dog then you could try pepto-bismol. 1 teaspoon dogs hate peptoso do the best you can getting it down. if your dog is 8 weeks or younger try to get it to tho vet. also make sure the dog does not dehydrate. good luck.

Answer 20

make sure she didnt eat something that would herrt her so look at her puke make sure theres nothing in it

Answer 21

Maybe it was just something she ate. If she has stopped drooling and stopped vomiting she must be getting better. she probably threw up what ever she ate. MAKE SURE YOU THROW AWAY WHATEVER SHE ATE SO SHE DOESN'T EAT IT AGAIN.
