Puppy pawing at mouth, won't drink. Does she need an emergency vet?

Thank you for submitting your question regarding Winnie. Yes, I recommend that she sees a veterinarian if she is still not eating and drinking. I worry that she will become dehydrated being such a small dog. Based on her exam findings, treatment can be recommended or diagnostics if necessary. For example, fluids can be given under the skin to rehydrate her and anti-nausea medication to control any further nausea and vomiting. I hope this information helps!

Brownie really needs to see a vet immediately. It's serious that there is a lot of blood coming out of her mouth, and this tooth will be extremely painful, which would be why she isn't eating or drinking. It could be that she has an infection of the tooth, and there is nothing you can do for her at home. I would call around clinics in your area to see if there is a low cost clinic nearby, check prices, call the Philippine SPCA for clinic costs, or see if your vet accepts payment plans. Please take her into a vet now, this is a medical emergency.

It is concerning that Winnie isn't drinking water but it's good that she is eating, urinating, and pooping. Based on that, I wouldn't rush her into an ER today, but definitely have her seen by a vet tomorrow if she still isn't drinking on her own. Keep giving her water via syringe, and take her into the ER vet if she stops eating, becomes very lethargic, stops urinating, or stops pooping.

Thank you for submitting your question regarding Winston. If he either refuses food or starts vomiting again when he wake up, he will need to see an emergency veterinarian today. He is so young that you do not want to wait long if he is ill. It is very easy for him to become dehydrated. If he seems better when he wakes up, you can monitor him today and follow up with his regular veterinarian. I hope this information helps!

I wouldn't wait until the morning to see the vet if Hazel is in great pain, she should see one 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. Best of luck.

I'm sorry Paws isn't doing well at the moment! I would try offering him water. Give him a chance to drink the water, I would keep offering it to him over an hour. If he refuses to drink the water, or he drinks the water and then vomits it up, then I would take him into the ER vet. It's a pretty serious sign when a dog won't drink water or can't keep it down, and in cases like that, it's best for them to see a vet right away. Should he drink the water and keep it down, then it's fine to wait until the morning to take him into the vet. Continue to monitor him tonight, and if Paws becomes very lethargic, the shaking gets worse, he starts vomiting, or he shows any other signs of illness, then take him into an ER vet right away. I hope this helps and he feels better soon!

Your poor pup! It sounds like he was quite injured from the bite if he is unable to drink water, can only eat slowly, and having some froth in the mouth. I would consider this a medical emergency and he needs to see a vet now. Please take him into one immediately.
