Sky is unwell

[Atemas]

Sky ‘asked’ to go outside this afternoon. I watched her expecting her to go to the toilet. Instead she started furiously plucking at the grass. I went out to her. She was making funny grunting noises. She eventually had a big poo and then started the grass eating again. I guessed she was wanting to make herself sick and she threw up twice. She then started panting and went and lay on the patio round the side of the conservatory (she never lies there). I went to her and gently stroked her as I could tell she was in distress. Then more grass eating for ages. Eventually I got her to follow me in but she wanted to go out again. Finally after what seemed ages, she lay on the tiled kitchen floor and looked quite exhausted. Throughout all this, she did the weird head nodding she’s been doing sporadically for quite a long time now. It was very upsetting watching her. Anyway, we’ve not fed her and won’t til the morning, she’s had her usual evening sniff walk and she’s settled by my feet.

Oh dear! I am sorry to hear your lovely girl isn't feeling well. It's so distressing isn't it? Hope tomorrow brings an improvement.

 

[Leanne]

Poor Sky and poor you
I hope she has a settled evening

So sorry to hear. Sounds like she was feeling very nauseous. Do you think perhaps a small meal might actually make her feel better? Some dogs get nauseous from feeling hungry (hunger pukes).

I hope she feels better soon. It must be very distressing for you.

Alison @Atemas , this is upsetting for you

 

[Rosie]

So sorry to hear that.
Grannies and eggs comment coming up - try to get her to drink something at least?

Oh dear, so sorry! I hope she is more comfortable tomorrow! Can you keep an eye on her tonight? Perhaps she feel more at ease outside, or will the kitchen tiles do? I know that our old lady some years ago only wanted to lay on cold floors!

So sorry Alison , she is obviously unhappy about something, poor love , hoping she picks up tomorrow xx

 

[Emily_Babbelhund]

Hope she can get more comfortable tonight, poor girl.

 

[Joy]

Poor girl, so sorry. Hope she has a settled night.

 

[Beanwood]

Poor thing, very worrying for both of you, hope you can get her comfier soon! We are having a few issues with Casper, it's horrid when they are unwell.

Hope Sky perks up tomorrow. She does sound quite nauseous, poor lamb.

 

[chrisc831]

Hope she is more ‘herself’ soon. Such a worry as they get older x

 

[SwampDonkey]

Rory does this when his colitis is hurting him. I would stay with her tonight if you can. Hope she's ok.

Poor lamb and poor you. It’s so hard when they’re not well. If only they could tell us what’s wrong or what they need.

 

[Lab_adore]

I hope Sky has a good sleep and is feeling better tomorrow

 

[Stacia]

That must be such a worry, how is she now? I would have phoned the vet for advice or has she been as uncomfortable as this before? Poor girl, horrid when they are poorly.

 

[Cath]

Sorry to read this

Hugs from me too xx

Hope she gets a good night sleep and feels better in the morning. Sure she will and be back to normal

Don't know what the weather is like, but she may enjoy laying out with you on the lawn if she feels the need to go back out again in middle of night. (I do that with Vanilla sometimes if she is feeling down/ill)
