Yes it does!When Nikki steals something she shouldn't eat, or when hubby feeds her too much and her tummy gets upset, I feed her 1/4 of a Pepcid tablet.
I hope Sophie feels better soon. Doesn't it always happen during a holiday weekend?
I don't think so because she was only out in the direct sun for about 5 minutes. The rest of the day we were under the porch with a fan blowing on usCould it be from the heat or sun exposure yesterday???
Is the pedialyte like a popsicle? I will go and get some for her along with the pumpkin. Thank youIf she does not want to eat you might try to give her some pedialyte like you do small children. We use the ones that come in freezer pop form so that you don't end up throwing out what you don't use. It will hyrate her and giver her glucose and electrolytes. Also a little canned pumpkin will help to settle her stomach. Hope she feels better soon
Yup - you actually buy them in the babyfood aisle though, not in the freezer section.Is the pedialyte like a popsicle? I will go and get some for her along with the pumpkin. Thank you
Our vet takes emergency calls. My dad went to get the Pedialyte for her. He loves his grandtesesMy vet always tells me to rest Lady's tummy for 12 hours - no food - but to force fluids if necessary. I buy the small bottles of Pedialyte that come in 4 packs so I don't waste them.
They do love to get sick on holidays, don't they? Lady had her first bout with HGE two years on on Memorial Day. :smpullhair:
Do you have an ER vet closeby if you need to take her in? Dehydration is very serious so if she isn't improved by suppertime, I'd take her to the vet.
The strange thing about this is she is acting like her normal self but her tummy is upset. I have her in her stroller right now with warm blankets and she's sleeping :wub:
Yes, that's exactly what I would do...sounds like an upset tummy to me too. Pedialyte hydrates, but Pepcid will help soothe her stomach.When Nikki steals something she shouldn't eat, or when hubby feeds her too much and her tummy gets upset, I feed her 1/4 of a Pepcid tablet
What a beautiful way to make your little one feel better - that sounds like true love to me!I use Pedialyte and sometimes 1/10 of a Pepcid AC when Casanova's stomach acts up. Mostly they have to finish "going" and rest and then they feel better. I have a doggie acupuncture diagram that I downloaded a long time ago, and I usually read while rubbing him gently on the points for stomach and intestines. I obviously know nothing about acupuncture, but Casanova always seems soothed by my amateur efforts...
Oh Crystal - it really is! When we first got Hunter and he had all his issues we had a ton of pedialyte on hand because we never knew what was going to happen next. Our vet actually recommended the freezer pops since I complained about how much we were throwing out. We were using the little sippers (small bottles) but even they were being thrown out or wasted.The Pedialyte freezer pops are a brilliant idea. I'm guessing they have a longer shelf life then the bottles. I just threw out yet again another unopened bottle of Pedialyte that was past the expiration date. I like to keep some on hand.
Give her some snuggles for me. :heart:
