My 4-5 month old dog suddenly vomited half-digested food days ago, now eats nothing but drinks and has diarrhea – why?
Vomiting and diarrhea may be gut upset, indigestion, gastroenteritis, parasites or a virus. Try probiotics and watch; see a vet if it persists or acts abnormal.
My dog suddenly needs to urinate urgently and has blood in the urine – what’s wrong?
