Dog vomiting and diarrhea after mice exposure. Should I go to ER?

You'll want to be sure to keep an eye on Dude. If the vomiting is persistent or you notice and diarrhea or change in behavior, you'll want to visit your local Veterinarian as soon as possible. You can offer him a bland diet of chicken and rice to let the stomach heal in the mean time. Don't forget to call the exterminator! Please keep us in the loop.

Oh no! I'm so sorry for the loss of your pet mouse. The diarrhea will likely pass, the question is when that day will be. For your sake and Levi's tummy I would get him to a vet as soon as possible so he can get some medications and treatment to expedite Levi feeling better and you not having to deal with uncontrollable diarrhea. In the interim you can try fasting him for 12-24 hours and then reintroduce a bland diet of plain boiled chicken and rice. Getting him seen by the vet would be the best and quickest way to no more diarrhea. Best. of luck and I wish Levi a speedy recovery!

Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! I'm sorry to hear Oscar isn't feeling well. I would recommend Oscar be evaluated by a veterinarian; hat is a large number of times that he has vomited, and with him not feeling well, I would recommend he be seen. There is the possibility that he ate something in addition to the mouse; and if the mouse caused such GI upset, he may need some medications to get his GI system normalized. I would recommend he be evaluated by his veterinarian, have any necessary testing done (xrays, etc) and start any treatment that he may need. Good luck!

Oh no, poor Ghost! When a dog has a myriad of symptoms such as the ones you describe him having, seeing a vet as soon as possible would be best. I would recommend having him seen by an emergency vet now. Good luck!

Poor Martin! I'm sorry to hear that he's sick. Vomiting can be caused by lots of different things. Some, like a mild upset stomach or eating something that didn't agree with him, are quite minor. Other possible causes are more serious, such as an intestinal obstruction, pancreatitis, ingestion of something toxic, or even parvo if Martin isn't fully vaccinated. To help determine how urgent the problem is, I usually judge this based on how the dog is acting otherwise. If Martin is still active and playful, interested in food and treats, and not having any other issues, then I would not consider this to be an emergency - in that case, you could opt to withhold food for the rest of the day today to give his stomach a chance to settle, then offer a small bland meal of plain boiled chicken and white rice this evening. Then, you can take him to your vet appointment tomorrow morning as planned. On the other hand, if he's acting depressed or lethargic, or isn't wanting to eat anything, I would be more concerned that something more serious may be wrong. In that case, it would be better to take him to an emergency vet today rather than waiting until tomorrow.

I recommend taking Poppy into an ER clinic. It sounds like she is getting dehydrated and likely needs fluids and other medication to make her feel better. She could have a stomach infection, pancreas issues or even kidney problems. Some cases need lab tests, some xrays, others both, to find out exactly what is wrong. Once the veterinarian diagnoses Poppy they can review a treatment plan to help her feel better.

Poor Capi! Sometimes rats are easier to catch for dogs due to rat poison, which can be very dangerous to dogs. Capi can be throwing up due to an intestinal obstruction from the actual rat carcass or have internal bleeding as some rat poisons contain anticoagulant toxins. I recommend having him seen by a vet right away, as he may need supportive care or vitamin K supplements (to replace the ability of platelets to clot). I hope this helps and am happy to answer any other questions you may have!
