My dog is vomiting, bloody diarrhea, weak. Is it an emergency?

This is a medical emergency, and you cannot treat this at home. You have to take Poppy into a vet now. Please take her into an ER vet clinic; if there isn't one in your area, there will be a vet on call for emergencies. The information to reach that vet is found on a clinic's answering machine or website.

Poor Paisley! The good news in this situation is that the blood is very red mraning it has likely come from further down the GI tract. Blood in faeces can occur for numerous reasons but usually it is to do with diaorrohea and straining. I suspect Paisley has developed inflammation in the large or small intestine. This may be to do with the bee sting, but also could be a reaction to the benadryl. I imagine they may have given her a steroid jag which can cause GI upset in sensitive guts. I would stop the benadryl and starve her for 12 hours then feed plain chicken and rice to give her guts a break. If the diarrohea or blood is not improved within 24 hours it would be best to see the vet again.

I am so sorry that your pet is not only ill but that you were brushed off by the emergency person when seeking help. That is quite unheard of also disturbing that someone would laugh at your pets misfortune. I am not sure your pets breed or age, but you should call another emergency vet in the area and get him seen right away. In fact if they are open, I would not wait and just take him in to be seen. He either has a really bad case of stress related hemorrhagic gastroenteritis, a coagulation disorder, pancreatitis, or a toxin exposure as the cause of his symptoms. I hope your furry friend gets the treatment he deserves quickly and is able to make a full recovery. Best of luck!

Duke is extremely ill, and he has to see a vet now. This is not something you can treat at home.

Hi and thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Sorry to hear about Daisy. Contact your local rescue groups, humane societies, low-cost clinics in your area and seek help. Persistent vomiting, bloody diarrhea and lack of appetite are emergent clinic signs due to fluid/electrolyte losses. This leads to dehydration, weakness, and further downward deterioration unless the vomiting stops and the appetite returns. I would advise taking Daisy to your vet as soon as possible to have her evaluated. Many causes are possible including intestinal parasites, dietary indiscretion (eating things dogs aren't supposed to), other dietary problems, gastrointestinal inflammation/infection from various sources, toxin exposure, foreign body ingestion, GI ulceration, side effects from drugs or products used, or even problems outside of the gut including pancreatitis, liver/kidney problems, among many others. Your vet can get a detailed history and perform a thorough exam. Once done, a diagnostic plan and preliminary treatment plan can be started. Most likely a minimum database of fecal/blood/urine tests and some x-rays will be advised. Treatment will be focused on the cause but early treatment could include fluids/electrolytes, anti-nausea/vomiting medicines, acid blockers, etc. Good luck with Daisy.

Hello. I am sorry Scout isn't feeling well. It sounds like Scout is very very sick and even though it is a long way from an emergency clinic I recommend you going there. Vomiting blood and having bloody diarrhea can be life-threatening, and can because caused by many issues, including parvo-virus. Without care, and quickly, Scout could get very sick or even die as this can lead to sepsis (severe whole body infection) or severe dehydration. If it is impossible to get Scout to a vet tonight (try calling around to see if a clinic in your area does out of hours care), then try to get Scout to eat or drink anything and get Scout to the vet ASAP in the morning. Good luck with her.

It seems as Scooby 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 the first chance you get, 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. if the vet thinks it is more serious he will need a blood test and possibly an ultrasound in order to find out what is wrong.
