One Sick Puppy

Now that I go to write the blog I can't remember if my profile picture shows Bella or not but I'm going to guess the dog is in my arms because she usually is and when she isn't, she is by my side. She went to work with me every single day in the CPA firm and she sits on my desk at home.

Two days ago she was restless, throwing up and diareah. I knew a vet visit was in order the next day however her diareah and vomitting stopped yesterday but she still stayed restless. Today she finally ate something but everytime she laid down, she would pop up, spin around, try to lay down, pop up spin around, try to lay down, rinse and repeat.

I only moved to this town two months ago so I called the neighbor to ask for her vets phone number. Funny thing when the vet's office answered I recognized the name and it was the same vet I used over 40 years ago when I lived in this town. I took Bella to the vet but she miraculously got better when we got there so I was sent home. If I find blood in her stool or she continues this popping up, spinning uncomfortable gestures I will have some geriatric blood work done after all she is 14 years old.

She weighed two and a half pounds, that is SOOOO TINY. I don't ever want such a tiny dog again. I love throwing her in my purse but I don't like watching for all the predators (like birds) that want to dine on her. Especially here in FL she is truly gator bait.

I think my cooking made for one sick puppy.

She's a cutie
What chihuahuas lack in size, they make up for in personality.
I hope she gets better soon bouquet
Hope Bella is OK.

I love dogs but it's like having another child at home. I told my kids no dogs allowed unless they fit in my purse. So please don't show them Bella
for Bella...bouquet
Maybe Bella got sick cause she ate something that shouldn't had.
Good vibes to Bella. I'm not exactly a dog person, but my granddaughter has a chihuahua that is so tiny you wouldnt believe it. His name is Izzy and he's a cutie, especially when he gets "ferocious". I don't know how long Chihuahuas live, but he's been around for about 10 years.
Thank you Ish, Crazy, Bear and TG for well wishes. She is a real sweet little Chi that never barks or bites. Of course she is a rescue dog and I've never ever heard a story about a bad rescue animal, never.
Oh Ish, by the way, Dogs don't talk back. Kids yeah.
Aww - I hope Bella's okay! Keeping you and her in my thoughts and hoping she's feeling better tomorrow. hug
Yes your profile pic does show her.

When my mum got a rescue chihuahua the cat watched it for hours on end, tail twitching uh oh

My dog is getting old too, and very subdued. Dreading the day.
Perhaps Bella found some candy in your purse. uh oh
Either way, I hope she feels much better soon. dancing dog
"I would have thought that Fay would have taken the hint,
that I wanted new Ralph Lauren bedding.
But, the thought of getting needles, snapped me out of that act quick." uh oh

Fay, I'm glad she is ok. Having not long lost one of my own I can certainly appreciate how you feel. teddybear
That's great that she's okay - what a scare! It's awful knowing that your time is limited with a pet, which makes it all the more important to really enjoy them while they're with us.
Bella is such a sweet little girl. I hope all ends up well with her. I truly do know the pain involved when a you lose a beloved friend like that so we will just count on her being around for years to come. After all small dogs usually live longer than large ones and I know she has been well taken care of.
