Good news! I fed Tod boiled chicken and rice this morning at 8am......4 hours later and he's keeping it down. We basically carried Tod in our arms all day long, serving him in any way we could. My daughter was observing that very carefully. Today she's been finding all kinda boo-boos on her and complaining of aches:) She says she needs medical attention. I said, "maybe just plain human attention?" :))))

Wow. I was thinking the same thing about maybe he's allergic to something in it. I would definitely call in the morning (well...now) if he's not better. It could have been the milk-bone or something else he ate, but don't let it go on too long.

I wonder if this incident could shed light on a food allergy or something? Hmm.

Poor Tod!
I doubt a Milk-Bone could do it, but you never know. I would not give him any more of them, to be safe.

Don't give him any food for the rest of the day and night, so his system can rest.
Tomorrow, feed him boiled rice and boiled chicken. IF he eats it and keeps it down, that's good. Feed him this for three days.

If he gets worse or his gums are very pale, I'd take him to the vet very soon.

GOod luck; please let us know how it goes

It could, unless he picked up other things without you knowing, check the box for expiration date or exchange for a new box and see. Stop the milkbone feeding and let his stomach rest for the day.

You should call the vet in the morning if he is not better. He could be dehydrated or have a blockage.
