Arrow Dog illness

Hi just wondering if anyone can help me out.
My dog tag has been ill since sunday, he has been vomiting and not eating and looks weak and tired all the time. He has been drinking a lot of water. Does anyone know the illness or can give me some tips on helping him get better?
Thanks

Re: Dog illness

You need to take him to a vet.

Re: Dog illness

You need a vet to diagnose your pet not forum members who know nothing about your pet. Majority of members don't have the qualifications needed to help your boy. Would you rather be getting wrong advice instead of going to the vet? Your boy could end up seriously ill. Sorry if i'm sounding blunt but if your concerned a vet is best

I agree...We can all "guess" what it might be but thats not to say that is what is up with your boy and it could turn out to be alot worse..

I would take him to the vets straight away if he has been like this for a few days...

Re: Dog illness

If your dog has been ill since Sunday it is time you got him to the vet. As others have said forum members cannot diagnose illnesses. Your dog needs a vet now!! My dog was very ill when she was only 9 months old and if I hadn't taken her to the vet she would not be here today.

Re: Dog illness

A friend of mine had 2 large stones removed from the intestines of her bitch after it was vomiting and not eating food.
You should take i to the vets immediate - it may have swallowed something and be being poisoned, the vet will clear it up in 5 mins and then you can decide on what to do

Unhappy Re: Dog illness

It is illegal to deny any animal vetrinary care to prevent suffering. You should therefore take this poor dog to the vet as soon as possible.
