Our question this week was:Dr. Jon - I have a boxer, age 4, and he is usually very playful and healthy. Now, he is vomiting, having diarrhea, not eating, and breathing heavily, and he's not his usual playful self.
Nicky P.AnswerHi – thanks for your email Nicky. I'm sorry to hear about your dog. There are many reasons why a dog can have vomiting and diarrhea. Many of these possible causes are serious. I'd recommend that you take him to your veterinarian immediately.
A couple article that might be helpful to you is
Vomiting in Dogs,
Chronic Diarrhea in Dogs and
Gastroenteritis in Dogs.
Best of luck!
Dr. Jon
