Dog is feeling quite ill and vet not available until tomorrow.? General Dog Discussions
My father's 7-8yo male dachshund woke up this morning feeling wobbly and a bit confused. The confusion seems to have gone away, but he's still fairly lethargic and does not want to walk. (He is able to stand.) He had not been vomiting, but refuses to eat and has been forced to drink some electrolyte water. He peed earlier quite a bit, though dad had to set him in the yard then carry him back in. Current status is that he's resting VERY still. He recently had a pulled back and was on some anti-inflammatory medication, but it is since done. The vet won't be available until (hopefully) tomorrow. Any ideas or advice for my father?Emergency vet is pretty much not available. It's an extremely small town and my father is self employed, from a very small town, and will not accept any help on the vet bill from me.
