We need prayers!

Please say a prayer for my little Marty. He's been sick all morning. He threw up several times when we first woke up and he has awful diarrhea which also just started this morning. Should I take him to a vet after class or should I wait and see if it goes away? I'm just so scared. He's never been sick before!

I don't know what to tell you to do. Maybe call the vet and ask their opinion if you should take him in or not. I'll be praying.

P.S. Thanks for the VERY nice PM!!!

Has he eaten or gotten into anything unusual? If not, then I would call the Vet first. He knows his history and age. Depending on his size, I would probably withhold food for a few hours and then let him have just a little to see if that would help. No sense letting them keep on eating if it's gonna upset their little tummies.

Diana and Janet, thanks so much for the information! He woke up even before Brendon and me today because he was sick. I just felt so sorry for him! But he's still very active and playful and he hasn't had anymore problems since then. I'm going to give the vet a call right now and ask what I should do. I've already taken his food away, I was afraid he would get sick again.

I don't *think* he has eaten anything unusual...but I guess it's always possible...

Thanks for you concern Gina. He seems to be feeling just fine now, but the vet wanted us to bring him in anyway so we have an appointment at 3:30. I'll keep you updated.

Go Marty! Give him a big feel better hug from me and Max, and take one for yourself - you were so worried.

Judy and Max

Marty is sitting on my lap right now, and he wanted me to tell you guys that he feels great today! He also said that he really appreciates all of your prayers and concerns yesterday. He sends everyone his famous puppy kisses as a thank you!

Sorry to be jumping in here so late. I'm glad he's back to normal! It's scary when they're sick.

HUGS
