Hello, sorry to hear about Jayce. It sounds like she may be dehydrated and feeling sick. She may need to be tested for parvovirus and ensure that she has not ingested foreign material such as a toy or clothing. Jayce will likely need x-rays to rule out ingestion of foreign material and to make sure she does not have an obstruction. She may need to have fluids and other medications given to her to make her feel more comfortable, unless she has parvovirus and may need additional treatments and possible hospitalization. Hope this helps and best of luck.
