One survived. People told me these are the symptoms of battery acid poisoning, a method used by burglars to get dogs out of their way before starting the action...

BambinA Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 (edited) I am thinking about, 1) GI problem such as enteritis and bacterial gastritis. 2) Coccidiosis or giardiasis. 3) Blood parasites as E.canis 4) Kidney disease. What I will do for rule out? 1) Blood collection for hematology and blood chemistry. 2) Check the dog's stool via microscope. ps. You had better give me more information for instance, how old is the dog, male or female..etc Hope the dog gets well soon Edited August 22, 2007 by BambinA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jet Gorgon Posted August 22, 2007 Author Share Posted August 22, 2007 Thanks, Doc. His parents just told me he ate a whole bag of dental bones, but that was a week ago, and he's had normal bowel and bladder, and normal eating since then. He's male, about 8 yrs old. On a restricted diet (no meat products) and loves vegetables -- lettuce, bell peppers, tomatoes. I think the vet took blood samples. Apparently, he's a bit better today, not active but alert. Sutnyod, the most-used poison for dogs when I was in Thailand was rat poison in some raw meat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jet Gorgon Posted August 24, 2007 Author Share Posted August 24, 2007 They just called me. He was at the vet all day on a drip. They brought him home and he passed. Only 4 years old, not 8. They will bury him tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi, Draggons. In Vancouver now. Sorry to hear about your pooches. Give the details and BambinA and the Dog Carers here will help. As BambinA noted before, give as many specifics as possible. Vomiting and colour, diarrhaea -- any blood in either, etc. My dogs got sick occasionally, vomitting, hot nose, but I put it down to something they ate when we went to the beach.

draggons Posted August 25, 2007 Share Posted August 25, 2007 Cheers JG, thought it might have been a local thing. Both fine now, must have been somthing they ate. Golden's started catching ting toks and often plays with frogs, could have been that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
