Butkus
Good afternoon all, we have an appointment set for our dear Butkus tomorrow first thing but wanted to check this forum for any advice in the meantime. Butkus is 8yrs old and the past 3 days weā€™ve noticed a change in him. He has gone #2 in the kitchen which is not like him at all. That was 2 days ago, yesterday he didnā€™t eat at all drank couple bowls of water and went pee in the kitchen. Heā€™s so lethargic only moves from one side of the room to the other. Heā€™s thrown up a few times yesterday but not today. Nothing has changed in his diet thereā€™s nothing he couldā€™ve gotten into I would know. Just weird that he just this way all of a sudden. Usually he gets excited when my husband comes home and nothing he just lays there. Anyone gone through something similar?

What food do you feed him??


Definitely a vet visit is needed.

Sometimes a kibble pet food can be contaminated with mycotoxins causing a sick dog. Thatā€™s common in some kibbles, I know taste of the wild has been recalled for a few things, thatā€™s why I was curious.

Hope the vets figure out whatā€™s wrong with him and hope he improves.

Keep us updated

Sorry Butkus isn't feeling well. Maybe there are contaminants in the food that are making him sick. He could have an obstruction as well. Definitely a vet visit is needed. I hope you find the answers you need so Butkus can get better.

It could be so many things so a vet visit is definitely best. Keep us posted!
