Not much improvement

Hi everyone,

Looking for a bit of advice. I posted a thread the other day about Mylo not being well. I followed suggestions of getting some slippery elm powder to add to his food and I've been feeding him boiled chicken and rice as he's used to having some cooked meats and he's not been eating his raw food very well for a while now for some reason.

He seems fine in himself, he has an appetite and is drinking, he's playing and running around, he's not going every hour but probably once or twice more than usual. It's very loose most of the time and sometimes it's a bit more solid but still no shape to it. The last couple of mornings his tummy has been making gurgling noises.

Should I just wait it out? Do I need to do anything different? Should I take him to the vets? I feel so sorry for and worried about my little man :(

I'm so glad he's better right now. But from personal experience, my chi would always start getting sick again at night or on the weekend when the vets were closed. I don't have the money to pay for emergency vet service. I know money is tight, but if there is something going on with Mylo, the longer you wait, the more it may cost to get the problem resolved. I would take a stool sample & have it tested for peace of mind. Hopefully, it was just an upset stomach.

Sending good healing thoughts to sweet Mylo. Keep us updated on what the vet says.
