Poor baby :hug: Yes the sickness is because she can't send food through her system so its backing up and won't stay down because it has nowhere to go. Give them both a hug for me please. xx

I wonder if some kind of laxative would work? Since it's a clump in there, maybe trying to make it more liquid would help. Even if it's diarrhea, at least it would remove it from her body? Or if not a laxative, maybe an enema could loosen some of it? I dont know if that's a good idea or not, of course.

I know she must be miserable!!!

If the way out is blocked by the mass an enema might not be able to get past it either. Call the doctor, don't wait for him, leave a message if necessary.. He's more likely to stop if you call than stop and make a call.

I was just going to say get her a stool softener. I have one from the vet from years back for Cutty. Let me go see what it's called. Don't know if it is over the counter or what tho. Oh it is just a hand written label, says DSS whatever that is.

I've heard that paraffin helps and also you can give dogs the same meds as humans to help with constipation. This can harm her bowels. Also not drinking enough and not exercising is just going to make it worse. Hope she feels better soon, keep us posted.

I would make an appointment for today. I am not sure why the vet is waiting, that can't be good. I say make the appointment and you know once you get there, she most likely will poop, that always happens. Hugs to her.

She is not constipated per say however because she is loaded with poop it is to high up and not formed to come down to come out. Yes it bad for them if it doesn't come down and come out. I am hoping that time will begin a process of allowing it to come down so that she can get it out. She was given meds to help with the nausia from her food coming back up. So far it has worked until now she threw up again. We went outside to go potty and she urinated but no poop although trying we came up with nothing. Today she seems distant and wants to sit in the sun room more than sit with us. She has come into the living a couple of times but she is getting uncomfortable with her positions of trying to get comfortable yet having the body shakes again. She is acting very different as the day goes. One minute she seems fine and the next minute she seems almost as though she is looking for somethiing. She never goes into my room yet today I watched her go to my room and stand in the doorway and she was just looking around, of course that brought tears to my eyes because it made me think she was possibly confused. I called her name and she just kept looking and then I said it again and she turned and came over to me and then crawled into her bed which is where she is now asleep. My mother is on her way over to talk with me about Thelm Thelm
My heart goes out to you and Thelm Thelm. You are in my thoughts and I anxiously await for the little sweetie to have a BIG POOP. Please know that I am thinking of you and praying for a speedy end to this ordeal you and she are going through. I can't understand why the vet did not do more initially. Especially when the little one is suffering so. Such a helpless feeling.
