I have a 9 month old Yorkie x... she developed a high temp, but carried on
eating for the first 24 hours. Her stools have remained normal and there has
been no vomiting. She became depressed and reluctant to walk due to her
feeling sore from the temp.

On examination my vet said she could not feel any blockages in her tummy,
and prescribed anti-biotics and gave her a jab to bring her temp down and
also an antibiotic jab. Also prescribed rehydration fluids (I asked for them
as I knew she would stop drinking). She said she was baffled and to return
in 2 days if she was no better.

The jab for her temp worked wonders... she was running around as normal for
a few hours... this morning she is no longer eating all her food, (she made
an attempt) and she has stopped drinking, and she is hot. Stools are still
normal, and she is still urinating. She is back to being depressed again
today.

Any ideas? I am confused!

...........get some bloodwork and urinalysis run ASAP. There must be an
infection somewhere if there was a good reaction to the antibiotic.

I think she reacted well to the painkiller jab... so it picked her up not
the antibiotic jab.
