| Re: Any Idea what this is? Lola has had so much of what you mention about Fizbin. It seemed like every few weeks she would be vomiting blood. It looked like tiny droplets. At first I thought she had gotten into a can of coffee, but it was blood. Sometimes just bright red droplets sometimes darker. This was almost always accompanied by bloody diarrhea and little appetite. The vet tested and treated for everything. Finally he did xrays and a different blood test. Acute bacterial over growth in her belly was the cause. He had and still has no idea why or how she got this condition. It is different than the ordinary gastritis. Lola was put on amoxicillin for the bacteria and tagamet acid reducer for the vomiting. So far so good for over a year. She needs both meds every day. The vet took her off all dog food and I cook for her. She eats 3xa day plus a snack before bed. If your boy requires a special diet, I will be happy to give you the one we have used for her.
I hope he feels better!!!
