Gaz_1989 9,539 Posted February 11, 2013 Report Share Posted February 11, 2013 3 weeks ago my sisters Jack Russell spent 3 days on a drip with a sickness bug. Last week my mates bull cross was really bad with same thing. Wouldn't eat for 5 days. He's pulled through now though. Last night she reused her evening meal. First time in the 8 months I've had her. She eats like a horse. I left it with her 5 minutes then took it off her. I aren't one for leaving food down and letting them graze. Anyways this morning i came down to this... The dark stuff is clearly shit. But what's the big pile? Is that sick or shit? It was also bloody colour but I couldn't be sure it was blood. I'm guessing there is a bug going around? Has anyone else had similar of late? I will starve her today and try her with some cooked chicken tomorrow morning and see how she gets on. Cheers Gaz Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Gaz_1989 9,539 Posted February 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2013 She's drinking fine by herself. Only reason I haven't been the vets is because I don't really wanna get screwed for £400 for a stomach upset like my sister did. If its Parvo then is there anything they can do?

If its Parvo then is there anything they can do? if shes drinking then thats a good sign , is that sick or piss...............? if its piss with all that blood then there is possibly something attacking the kidneys...................... but if its vomit that could be the colour of the vile from her stomach , then i wouldnt be rushing to the vet as long as shes drinking plenty........i wouldnt be starving her for a day either...........bland food as you said and some energy source in her water to help fight the bug....... pm penny or sandy mere or socks, they will help you better than me self ,..........................its a cnut getting ripped off by them so dont rush as long as shes drinking.............. edit too say if shes like normal ,.........just keep an eye on her disinfect every thing and keep her away from the other canines the bug should pass through..........sounds like shes not as bad as i first thought..........

It's not piss, it was too thick and lump. Not sure if its sick or shit though. Exactly the reason I didn't rush to vets as you say. It's a fine line between going for nothing and getting ripped off and leaving it too late though isn't it. Cheers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
