Mushaka Posted October 11, 2007 Share Posted October 11, 2007 My brother has had Lewis out for the day and allowed him to eat VERY suspect bacon!! uncooked..approx 3 wks old. He has already thrown up and lookin sorry for himself. What more should i watch for or should I do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dogsforall Posted October 11, 2007 Share Posted October 11, 2007 is he still vomiting? if so i would want he doesn't dehydrate if not hopefully all the yukky meat is up now and he should be feeling better in a few hours poor baby hope he feels better soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bonny_beagle Posted October 11, 2007 Share Posted October 11, 2007 Yep same, the most immediate concern would be dehydration. Use the skin pinch test and try to keep the fluids up, a tiny bit of brown sugar in it may help. Goodluck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mushaka Posted October 11, 2007 Author Share Posted October 11, 2007 hasnt thrown up again... just looks a little sad and sorry for himself... Brother swears he didnt think it would affect him... GRRRRRRRR drives me mad!!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dogsforall Posted October 11, 2007 Share Posted October 11, 2007 very glad to hear he's not still vomiting i dare say he may have the runs later as well but if his fluids are kept up he should recover within 24 hrs poor baby know just how that feels hope he gets over it quickly and not too much mess for you to clean up but better out than in maybe next time he wants to feed the dog get him to test the food himself first i reckon everything would be fresh and a daisy then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
