On Saturday morning I brought my 9-month-old lab to the vet for a
check up, his ears had been itching him. The vet cleaned his ears and because his ears were raw from the itching the vet technician gave him an anti-inflammatory injection. We went home and our dog was fine all day Saturday and Sunday. About 1 am Monday my wife and I woke to him throwing up aggressively. We monitored him as he continued getting sick through out the night. Towards the morning his throw up was nothing but mucus and white foam. At about 8am he had a bowel movement that was nothing but water and blood, which prompted us to immediately bring him back to the vet. Our dog spent all day and night at the vet getting x-rays, barium x-ray and blood work done. After all the testing was done the vet attributed the vomiting and bloody diarrhea to severe gas!!! I'm not a vet but this sounds like a pretty whacky diagnosis. Has anyone ever heard of this? I was reading online that there have been cases of dogs having severe gastro intestinal reactions to anti-inflammatory drugs with symptoms such as lethargy, vomiting, blood/water diarrhea, which my dog had. Has anyone experienced something similar? Does anyone have any suggestions on what I should do? |
