My dog has a bit of diarrhea but is still in good spirits and eating
Diarrhea with good spirits and normal eating is usually diet, indigestion, or parasites. Withhold food briefly and give probiotics; see a vet if no relief. Feed on a schedule and slow the eating pace.
Why does my dog vomit right after drinking water?
Vomiting after drinking can come from indigestion, water quality, drinking too fast, gastroenteritis, parasites, or infection. Dirty water may be spat out; too much or too fast drinking can spasm the gut and vomit. Gastroenteritis means water irritates the damaged stomach. Find the cause for proper care.
Cat has had symptoms for three days; today hid, found with bloated belly, cries in pain when touched, won’t eat, drank some warm water
Bloating, pain, and not eating may come from indigestion, parasites, or feline ascites. Watch for breathing difficulty, which would point to ascites. The cat is in poor state; take it to the vet at once for emergency care to avoid worsening.
Usually just kibble, no other food; since yesterday afternoon he vomits, locked in cage he kept crying, let out he still vomits, today still vomiting
White vomit can come from sudden food change, functional indigestion, parasites, or infection. Eating too fast or too much causes indigestion and vomiting. Recall recent eating; first fast and give pet anti-vomit meds and probiotics. If no relief, see a vet.
Stool was dry when first home; after some wet food it got a bit loose; does this count as diarrhea?
From the photo, the stool is loose and unformed; if spirits and appetite are good, it may be indigestion from wet food, common in cats with weak guts or new food. First fast and withhold water 6-12 hours and give pet probiotics, then slowly return to the old diet, avoiding sudden changes or new foods. If diarrhea continues, check parasites and gut flora at the vet.
Yesterday the stool was dry with blood at the end; today it’s soft stool, end with blood; what is it?
Soft stool with blood at the end may be food intolerance or indigestion causing hemorrhagic enteritis. Parasites like giardia or coccidia that common dewormers miss are also possible. Some gut bacteria or viruses like coccal enteritis or panleukopenia cause bloody stool. If the cat eats and acts well, try pet broad-spectrum anti-inflammatory, gut-mucosa recovery, and adsorbent anti-diarrhea meds. If no full recovery after gut care and fasting, take it for fecal, blood, and infectious tests.
Dog ate a lot of greasy food yesterday; since last night diarrhea, this morning vomiting and diarrhea, no interest in food
Before the vomiting, diarrhea, and refusal to eat, the dog ate much greasy food, so this is mainly indigestion causing gut flora imbalance or gastroenteritis. First fast half a day and give pet probiotics; after relief, offer easy food. If no improvement, suspect gastroenteritis and give pet broad-spectrum anti-inflammatory and anti-diarrhea meds.
Vomited twice this afternoon, white foam, no blood, spirits okay; ate some canned food after one vomit
White foam vomit with okay spirits and appetite is mainly from indigestion or eating too much/too fast. Give pet probiotics and reduce portions, and watch. If it continues, consider hairballs, gastroenteritis, or other disease; see a vet.
Why is my dog suddenly coughing and retching? It didn’t poop at night; the hospital X-ray says stomach and gut problems, and the image is unclear
Confirmed coughing usually points to respiratory disease; violent coughing can cause stomach spasm and reflux vomiting, and hard food may injure the esophagus or stomach. The blurry film shows high-density matter in the stomach, possibly undigested bone or food; recall if you fed hard bones causing injury and indigestion, leading to cough and retch. Follow the vet's plan.
My dog vomited at night; first undigested kibble, then about five times with nothing left, still retching
Vomiting undigested food first then nothing suggests indigestion causing gastroenteritis or another disease. Try pet-specific broad-spectrum anti-inflammatory and anti-vomit meds and watch. If no improvement, see a vet. Ongoing vomiting can cause dehydration and even threaten life.
