Crappy update! Boeboe's had some eating problems lately :(

[Petra]

@Petra Have you ever thought-colitis or ebs? Have you tried giving her pepcid(or pepto before she eats?) Sorry if I am repeating..computer is mean to me!

Sorry, I meant IBS...

I haven't really thought anything I just assumed she's picky and that's why she doesn't eat sometimes... Both colitis and IBS seems to cause issues with the stool? Boeboe's is usually normal, just this morning her poop was fine but this afternoon after I basically force fed her a piece of chicken she pooped slime

I gave her Ulsanic just now, hoping it will help her tummy a little... and I made her rice and chicken that I'll feed her an hour from now since the Ulsanic needs an hour before I can feed her.

Yes, [MENTION=7710]Petra[/MENTION], both would cause bowel and intestinal/stomach issues. I don't know Ulsanic-is it antibiotic?

 

[Petra]

She puked once earlier, it was just white foam, no blood or anything. I've also checked her poops, I've not seen any blood in it previously and it has been firm but tonight in the slime poop I thought it looked like there might have been a little blood but it's hard to say It wasn't fresh blood if it was blood at all... it was an area in the slime that looked darker brown, could have been blood. ****, this sucks I hate it when they're not feeling well She's been happy otherwise today, she doesn't seem to feel bad, she just doesn't want to eat... and now she hates me cos of the Ulsanic

She was on antibiotics that she finished on Monday. Ulsanic is for ulcers... it helps protect and sooth the stomach lining. Here's the info about it.


Ulsanic Suspension Orange 100ml gets to work fast to provide relief from heartburn, stomach cramps and pains, indigestion, nausea and acid reflux. It also helps with peptic ulcers and to soothe an inflamed stomach lining.

Well, that sounds like something that would be in the line of helping her problem-but not every medicine is right for all. I sure wish you could find the answer-I know you sure do.

I got the Ulsanic from the vet, along with antibiotics and probiotics, but the vet didn't know what the cause is, she just prescribed this as a starter route... I read up on Colitis and IBS and it can absolutely be it, if she keeps getting ill I'll suggest it to the vet and take it from there. I have a problem now since our regular vet closed down and the vets around here aren't used to bulldogs... i guess we'll take her back to the vet we were at about a week ago since she knows now what she prescribed and so on...

[MENTION=7710]Petra[/MENTION] I hope something can be figured out soon.....

Good luck [MENTION=7710]Petra[/MENTION], I'm sorry you guys are still going through this and I hope Boeboe feels better soon

I've tried to feed her chicken breast and chicken sausage with rice today, she refused! Tonight I ordered chicken breast for me from the local restaurant and of course Boeboe wanted the chicken... she was even excited about it so I gave it to her. I tried to smuggle some of the "old" chicken in but she caught it and refused to eat it I don't know how she can even tell the difference, it's both chicken breast... The important part is that she ATE a little at least...

She's eating fine now again, not very hungry in the mornings but eats a little. She's always been like that though so I'm not worried about that. Stocked up on beef mince today so I'll be making meatballs for the rest of the weekend... She also got her beloved pond back so now she can drink that yucky water

 

[Manydogs]

[MENTION=7710]Petra[/MENTION] Guess you'll have to take her to the restaurant and let her check out the menu, and order what she wants! "I'll have that special chicken, and a pint of pond water"

How is Boeboe feeling now?

How is Boeboe feeling now?

She seems fine Carolyn, thanks for asking She only puked up a little white foam that one time about 10 days after the vet visit, it was just before I opened up the pond again... now she's enjoying a gallon of yucky pond water every day so her tummy is nicely full of... fish crap and algae

Some days she eats like a pig and some days she's very picky, but as long as I get her to eat something from the "smörgåsbord" she's fine I have to have a few different things prepared for her so there is something that will be good enough for the Queen of Pickiness
