Food & NutritionHello. I have a 4 year old hybrid of Pomeranian and German Spitz. He lives in Bangladesh, and always eats home food. He suddenly stopped eating last week. Just chewed on some bones and never ate. We took him to the vet, who gave him medicines, but h
I would recommend that you have Cookie re-examined by the vet. If he chews on bones, he could have a piece lodged in his intestines. Other causes of not wanting to eat include dietary intolerance or indiscretion, food allergy, intestinal parasites, gastroenteritis, bacterial or viral infection, IBD, pancreatitis, among others. Cookie will probably need x-rays and/or bloodwork to make a diagnosis. As for the rash, there could be lots of things and he will need to have a vet examine it for a diagnosis. It could be bacterial infection, ringworm, mange, or a skin or hair disorder. The vet will likely collect a small sample to examine under the microscope to make a diagnosis.
