My dog is sick, vomiting blood, not eating. Is it too late for vet?

Updated on September 23rd, 2025

Pet's info: Dog | Chihuahua | Male | 4 months and 26 days old

My dog is terribly sick. I'm feel like it's too late to take him to the vet. What should I do? On monday my dog started vomiting, on tuesday he started doing blood when he went to the restroom, on Wednesday he lost alot of weight and stopped eating and drinking water, today we fed him and gave him water with a syringe and a few minutes ago every time he moved he started crying.

It sounds as Choco is suffering from a gastrointestinal condition, possibly an infection. it could also be due to ingestion of a foreign body material. i would recommend taking him to the vet URGENTLY, he will need to be checked first, if the vet thinks it's a simple gastrointestinal infection he will need an anti vomiting injection, antibiotics and a special food for a few days in order to get better.
