What if a Toy Poodle eats a pear?
Poodles can eat pears - vitamins and minerals ease throat pain and cough from upper respiratory infection. But pears are cooling; sensitive guts may get diarrhea, so moderate. For soft stool/diarrhea, give probiotics or anti-diarrhea medicine.
What if a Golden Retriever is over-calcium?
Too much calcium makes bones brittle and prone to fracture and deformity. Long-term high calcium causes hypercalciuria and urinary stones. It also lowers appetite and nutrient absorption. Supplement moderately; test first if unsure.
Over two months old, vomiting and bloody stool – what medicine cures it?
Vomiting with bloody stool has many causes; treat by cause. Usually enteritis - bacterial from bad food (anti-inflammatory + anti-diarrhea like cefadroxil, bismuth; light diet) or viral (parvo, corona, with fever, lethargy - screen if unvaccinated). Parasites or bones also trigger; hospital for cause.
Cat vomits yellow fluid 2-3 days after spay; ate a bit when home, now drinks, won’t eat; normal stool, sleeps sprawled, vomited yellow many times.
Post-spay yellow vomit is usually anesthesia, recovering in 12-24h with cimetidine and probiotics. If still frequent at 2-3 days, low post-op immunity irritates gut - fast, hospital fluids for anesthetic metabolism and anti-emetic/anti-inflammatory. Also rule out post-spay panleukopenia.
Vomiting since yesterday, no food, lots of blood in stool, standing not sitting, foamy mouth, vomiting pale yellow clear fluid.
Causes: 1) sharp foreign body causing gut damage and blood - X-ray and surgery. 2) parvo/corona with tomato-like bloody diarrhea, vomiting, dehydration, high death rate - hospital now. 3) parasites with good spirit - deworm, probiotics, antibiotics. Unvaccinated puppy likely parvo - hospital.
The day it ate fish it was energetic; next day after fish it vomited, no energy for two days; that night let out, back at midnight, worse, by third day limp by the heater, legs weak; orange cat pink nose; near death nostrils black – was it the fish or poison outside?
Cats can eat fish, but spoiled fish or big bones harm the gut; vomiting then no treatment may kill. But with outdoor access, poison cannot be ruled out; only a necropsy tells. Don't ignore mild sickness - treat early.
Long-term diarrhea; had it twice a month ago, again today, always outside the litter box.
Don't rush to feed; diarrhea is diet or disease. If only diarrhea with normal spirit/appetite, maybe sudden food change or dirty food - fast a day, then Weilike; probiotics help. If other signs, disease like gastroenteritis, panleukopenia, parasites - test and treat; else deworm first.
After diarrhea improved, now soft stool.
Rabbit diarrhea can use antibiotics like norfloxacin, neomycin, oxytetracycline per vet to prevent secondary infection. Causes: cold, wrong drugs, gut bacteria. Keep warm, feed lactase, reduce food; if no better, use antibiotics. Manage hygiene and fresh feed/water.
What if a dog eats potato chips?
Not recommended - high salt burdens kidneys, causes tear stains, shedding, bad breath; additives harm health; spicy flavors irritate the gut, causing vomiting/diarrhea. Also avoid cookies, chocolate, candy.
What happens if a dog has internal heat (heatiness)?
Signs: red conjunctiva, heavy tear stains, eye gunk, dry nose, bad breath; some get soft stool or constipation. Give more water, fruits/veggies, probiotics or honey for constipation. Avoid too much meat or strong flavors.
