Poor Bruiizer he's been under a lot of stress, with you leaving and then having to put up with the new puppy. I keep my granddaughter"s dog and we have a new puppy. By the time she comes back to get her dog he will be stressed out and act like what Bruiizer is doing, but with this new virus that the dogs are getting. I would take him to the vet if he don't show any improvement shortly. Please keep us up dated on Bruiizer

I, too would be concerned about this new flu going around in dogs.....we have a friend who takes his dog to doggie daycare a couple of times a week and they brought a vet in and gave all the dogs a flu shot (with owners permission, of course).....I wouldn't have know about it if our friend hadn't told us......it is in the midwest, big time and has never been seen in the USA before...I understand it is more respiratory though....google "new dog flu", Loralye as there is a wealth of info there........I am hoping that Buriizer is just suffering from separation anxiety.......Keep us posted........

Oh my, not a happy reunion for you and Bruiizer at all. I do hope he will be OK

He is certainly suffering from being away from you, especially as Bruiizer and the puppy did not get on. He will soon come right. Lots of TLC.

I would be at the vet's. Seeing this much "not normal" behavior and the throwing up are more than stress. He can't tell you if he swallowed some foreign object that is causing distress, or what.
Plus that will lessen the stress that you are now feeling.

well after throwing up 4 more times this morning I decided to give him a ginger cookie. One that I have for when I have tummy upset. This afternoon he seems more like himself & has even had 6 kibble bits & has kept that down as well so I am more relieved then I can say. I think I will finally be able to sleep restfully tonight! He has not thrown up again since the cookie YEH! Thank you for letting me express my concern I know that to many he is just a dog but he is my baby & I love him dearly............

Drinking is the most vital. If he has now started drinking more, then likely he is starting to do better. With your sister getting a new puppy then there is no telling what the puppy could have brought with him/her from where the puppy came from. Pet stores or rescue shelters can often be breeding grounds as they are often kept in close quarters.

If Bruiizer is still throwing up, then also would be deciding if a vet appt is in order though if he stresses the vet appts then I would watch him another day before making that decision since he is at least getting the water intake. In the next couple days, if he is still not eating his kibble well, then would make up food like you did the egg. When we were feeding 2 mastiff puppies that the mom did not have enough milk for, we had to make up their food combining white rice, minced chicken, minced up vegetables etc then also added the milk replacement our vet had recommended but since Bruiizer is not a pup just combine the other items using far more rice, vegetable and sounds like a scrambled egg would be alright with Bruiizer too. We made up a large pot every other day so it made feedings easier and just warmed up what was needed. Hopefully Bruiizer will be getting back to himself with lots of love from his favorite people. If Bruiizer is more of an elderly dog then the new pup would have been very stressful not to mention your sister would have needed to give the puppy more attention when Bruiizer was already having some abandonment issues. Lots of love and a bit of spoiling for a few days should turn things around and if not then would be looking to get a vet appt to rule out any other illnesses. The dog flu sounds very scary and hope that Bruiizer has not come into contact with anything like that! Hope to hear good news soon about how your little Bruiizers doing.

Glad Bruiser is better. we who are no longer youngsters do get stressed in unchartered territory and change gets my tummy all upset. Maybe now that everything is back where it's suppose to be he'll be back to his old self/Lillian

When my dog gets like this i phoned the vet and each time she says give him a half of pepto bismol or whatever its called and i put it in cheese and he eats it and the next day or that evening he feels better .

update on Bruiizer..... I was wrong he wasn't any better yesterday & I tried the Pepto & gave him some egg since he would not eat the Pepto alone, he threw it up too. I was @ my wits end so I started to research on line & what I was able to find repeatedly was a 12-24 hour fast......Made the most sense to me so I took away all the food & water. I gave him 2 tablespoons of water every hour all night long until I fell asleep about 3am but I had my cell phone alarm on so was able to do it twice more. He has not thrown up all night nor has he wanted to go out to eat any more grass. All are good signs I hope. This morning I gave him 2 tablespoons of plain rice & so far so good. He seems in better spirits & is sniffing around for something to eat. I have read that if he keeps the rice down he can have a wee bit of chicken with his rice for dinner & to keep giving him water every hour until he shows that he can keep everything down. Only 1-2 tablespoons @ a time though & not to leave it out as we would normally do. This will give him tummy a chance to settle & make him feel better which includes his energy levels will be better too. I am hopeful.............& thank you all for your advice & concern. ~hugs & **~

When our Collie was sick years ago, the vet said to give her aspirin every four hours to help her upset tummy. It worked, but each dog is different.
I would check with your vet first to see if it is okay to give it to him. Hugs.

He is on the bland rice & minced chicken diet & he is doing so much better then before & today we are leaving his water out for him so will continue to watch & make sure that he is drinking properly again. I feel we are in the home stretch & today will be the turning point. I hope so anyway ~hugs & **~

He seems to be back on track today & now we will simply keep an eye on his water intake & then it will be safe to say he is back to normal again. Once again I am thankful for all the advice given here it has given me comfort through this ordeal!~hugs & **~
