Brandi does not have any form of Addison but is vomiting more brown fluid. She destroyed a piece of wall and crate and molding. Regurgitate from stomach and throws up. Needs surgery?

Poor girl. If she is vomiting food and water and has no appetite with little stool production, then this is supicious for a foreign body. I would first have her seen by your vet and have some radiographs taken of her belly to look for signs of an obstruction and then go from there based on the findings. I do hope that Brandi doesn't have a foreign body obstruction and perhaps just an upset stomach. Until you can get her in to be seen its best to fast her for the next 12 hrs (no food, only water), then try to offer her a bland diet of boiled palin chicken or lean ground turkey and rice to try and settle her stomach. Best of luck moving forward with Brand. Take care.

    She may have some gastric upset or pancreatitis. Withhold food for the day and see if that helps. If it continues, she starts vomiting or having diarrhea than she needs to be seen by a vet for treatment. Hope she feels better soon.

    Poor Freddie! That is awful about his food! I would contact the company to let them know this happened to the food, you may be able to get a refund. Keep him on the chicken diet for a few days, and add some white rice to it. If he keeps vomiting or having loose stool, have him seen by the vet. I hope this helps!
