Hi all.

Tarot started being sick last night at about 10pm. I've starved her since as that's what the Vet said to do, as long as she drinks. Trouble is, she won't even drink.

Vet said to starve her for 24hrs, but can anyone suggest how I can get her to drink, short of forcing her to?

I don't like the idea of her being ill and not able to tell me what she wants.

I'm wondering if it's something she's picked up from the mersey as I can't keep her out of it.

Any help appreciated!

Cheers guys.

Have you tried a salt lick, it will dry out the dogs mouth to a point where they need to drink. Like when fast food places put extra salt on your chips to encourage you to buy more drinks.

No, not tried that. Thought they were only for donkeys, horses and Johnny Keogh.

Will try that.

Thanks WADDI

Me too - heard about 3 dogs that have died in the past few weeks that only go on the beach that started off being sick like she is. I'd die if I lost her.
