Will my Chihuahua die2007-11-25 2:56:36

Try to get a little water down her throat, if you have a dropper,

give her a little at a time to keep her hydrated. If she looks

really bad and this isn't helping, get her to an emergency vet

right away. You can lose her really fast, so keep a close eye

and don't wait for your regular appointment, because she

is a tiny dog, when things go bad, they go bad really fast.

dogs dont get diarrhea from being over fed. they get it from bacterial problems, from disease or other problems, or from WHAT food they are fed, not how much.

i suspect your brothers have been feeding her human food. if that is the case, they need to stop immediately. Human food can kill dogs and make them develop all types of problems such as diabetes. She is a dog and needs dog food to be her healthiest - no table scraps.

as for dogs dying from diarrhea - yes, they can. particularly puppies. this is because they dehydrate very fast - the diarrhea strips the body of water and nutrients.

if it is bad (quite runny), you need to take her to an emergency vet or hospital TODAY - do not wait until monday.

make sure she has a constant supply of water.

Make sure that she gets plenty of access to fresh clean water. You don't want her to get dehydrated.. Odds are as long as your brother doesn't feed her anymore.. That she'll be fine by tomorrow.

most likely she will not die before you get her to the vet, but make sure to keep her comofrtable before you get there. give her plenty of water. that is what you can do, and diarrhea is not that bad. she won't die in two days unless it has been going on for a while.

A small dog especially it being a pup will dehydrate quickly so I would get the dog to a vet immediately, telling them it is an emergency and the dog needs to be seen.
