It sounds like it's time to take Blaze to the vet. Whenever we have severe diarrhea associated with vomiting or lethargy (sleeping more), it's worrisome. Hopefully your vet will be able to figure out what is going on, make sure Blaze is not dehydrated, and give him medication to help get him feeling better. Good luck! I hope that was helpful. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center.
