Daisy keeps eating grass
« on: January 31, 2006, 08:23:29 pm »
Lucas is our big paw but for some reason I'm always addressing Daisy issues. Today's issue is her health. For two days straight she has been almost obsessively eating grass and throwing it up, along with her food. She has horrible gas, but no signs of diarrhea. Now she doesn't want to eat either(she is playing and running around). It's seems like a stomach flu like people get. I work next door to the vet and will talk to him tomorrow, but was wondering if there is anything I can do to alleviate her illness? Should I be very concerned? They both have had little ailments here and there but I have not yet seen a dog make themselves throw up so frequently and it has me slightly worried.

Do you have chewable pepto bismol?  They are safe for dogs and I give it to Sophie if she has the runs or gas and it usually helps.  But of course I am no expert :)
