My dog vomited, is pale, and not eating. Is he poisoned by sausages?

Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed | Male | 9 years and 8 months old | 30 lbs

My pet dog Whiskey (10 years) is behaving unusual. He vomited a little. We gave him sausages, he ate two. But he is in discomfort, unusually changing his sitting position around the house and face looks pale (. He is not eating anymore now and is on the bed and resting. We are afraid if it poisoning. Vet service here would be available after 8 hours in the morning and again we dont' have the full facilities.

Poor Whiskey! I would try to feed him some plain chicken (no bones) and rice to see if he will eat and if this will settle his tummy. Since he is uncomfortable, I would recommend to see your vet as soon as it is open. Since you aren't sure about the toxin or what the toxin might be I wouldn't recommend to make him vomit anymore. This could be something else like a parasite, gastrointestinal infection, kidney disease, liver disease and more. Your vet will be able to do a fecal and possible bloodwork or X-rays if needed. I hope this helps and that sweet baby starts to feel better really soon.
