My kids stayed for a week in my sister’s house. They borrowed one of her
dogs, MOCHI, the mother of our silky terrier Twinkle (+) and brought her here.
Mochi is 13 years old and she is so behave. She only barks when she sees the neighbor’s cat wander in our backyard.
Oyen takes her walking in the afternoon around the neighborhood.
Yesterday morning Edmund let her out in the garden and saw her eating grass.
He said she probably is having a tummy ache because that’s a dog’s natural reaction when they are not well. They go look for a remedy. This morning at 3 am she threw up several times and there was grass in her vomit. Around noon this morning she started having diarrhea. Edmund gave her Imodium which according to the internet is safe for dogs.
We thought she was showing signs of recovery because she ate one tiny piece of hotdog and a few slices of bread.
Tonight she stopped any desire to eat nor drink even a drop of water. She is also shaking. We are dead worried. Unfortunately here, we are far from 24-hour vet clinics. We’ve searched the net for vets open during the lockdown and we’ve found some online. We hope she holds on till she receives the needed medical care tomorrow morning.
