Vomiting/Diarrhea
Well.
Mild hiccup in Blaze's first month at home. Last night he seemed really quiet (which is a huge red flag). I took him outside for the final pee/poo of the night. He threw up... it seemed to be mostly solid food, so I thought maybe his stomach just wasn't agreeing with him. He had been chewing a lot on a bully stick I bought for him two days ago. His stomach was really bloated, so I figured maybe between the bully stick and his regular food he just consumed too much?? He did poop after he threw up, so I thought it was just a case of overeating.
Well... my husband and I woke up this morning to a crate full of diarrhea-poo and vomit. Sigh. We don't know what time he got sick, since we are deaf and can't hear what he does in the night... but we feel pretty rotten. I feel horrible thinking of him sitting in his messy crate wondering why we didn't rescue him. Took him outside, gave him a bath, hosed down the crate, hosed down the mat, etc. Today's my birthday so what a nice birthday surprise, huh?
I'm concerned about him. This morning his energy level is a little bit low, but he's still affectionate and wants attention. I'm taking him to the vet at 8:30, which I had originally planned to do since he needs his third deworming shot, so I will see what the vet has to say.
Wish us luck.

Happy B Day! I would leave the bully stick for now and give his tummy a rest. Monitor him and see if he's having diarrhea today.

I would think the bully stick could upset Blaze's stomach. Did he swallow pieces of the bully stick and not chew it? Hopefully it is not worms that is causing the problems. When Lance had worms as a puppy he actually threw them up and you could see them.....it was the grossest thing ever!! I felt so bad for him. Well Good Luck at the vets and keep us posted, whatever it is I am sure you will be able to cure it. Hope Blaze feels better soon, it isnt any fun feeling so crummy. Have a Happy Birthday
