Ruby - After Visit To Vet

Hi,

Ruby started to vomit yesterday evening and pass bloody stool or pure liquid blood a few times...!

She was still passing out blood over night and twice this early morning.....sigh....

I did not sleep well as I was concerned that she may not make it through the night as there was a lot for blood and she was not eating at all and drinking very little........

Cleaning her up was also a chore and the blood stank indeed.

My wife and I took her to the vet first thing in the morning and the vet gave her an injection and also taught us how to use the syringe to force the liquid medication into her mouth.

Ruby looks better now after the visit but still not eating but drinking more water. The vet said Ruby is not dehydrated.

Ruby is more back to her normal self as she is actively barking at the thunder as it is raining now.

Here are a few photos of her......:








No appetite to eat yet.....?












Mum tried to coax her to eat by giving her some chewy bacon bits..... It worked but she still refused to touch the special food we bought from the vet....sigh.....








Jack was in the background, barking for Ruby's food and treat, though he was given a few biscuits already...bottomless pit...!





Will keep ou updated on her progress.....

David
