Things seems to be better, but he usually has a flame up about every 3 weeks so we'll see. I've been a lot less stressed so I think that helps. He seems to like his new sensitive tummy food & we took out all people food except a bit of peanut butter or mozzerella cheese her & there. We took away his hooves & replaced it with a treat ball that he loves. Logan is a big yorkie & seemed to have an iron stomach until christmas & since we've had nothing but problems. We're trying to trouble shoot by taking certain things away. The less he gets the easier it will be to pinpoint the problem. My vet honestly things he has a nervous stomach just like his mommy. Here's the most recent pic I have on my computer it was taken last winter.

Aww, what a cutie! He's adorable! I hope you figure out what's causing his tummy problems soon.

He's a beauty!

Max has a nervous stomach. He's been sick with a cough (Gracie caught it) and he was on meds. He threw up 3 times a couple of days ago and I just cleaned up tons of yorkie poop. There was a tiny little poop on the paper so I didn't yell too much. I stopped the meds. His cough is gone.

Sounds like this weather is hard on all of us. Per the x-rays & such they just think he's GI tract gets irrated so now we're trying to limit any food that would be hard to digest. So far so good. I hate it when he doesn't feel good. I'm glad to hear Max is doing better.

Logan sure is a cutie...love the snow picture. I hope you can get it all figured out so you both feel better.

Judy, I'm glad Gracie Leigh and Max are better too.

After reading a thread on YT I'm being to think he might have lead toxicity. I bought him these adorable melamine bowls for little kids with Stitch (of Lilo & Stitch) on them. I looked last night & they are made in china. Lead toxicity gives the same symptoms. I may just be being paranoid, but I took them away. I was going to use his old ceramic bowls, but they say made in china too, so right now he's using 2 of my correlle bowls until I can get him a set of his own.

I hope it's as simple as changing food bowls.
It's so hard when they're sick and can't tell you what's up.

Sorry Judy, but I had to giggle when you talked about cleaning up

tons of yorkie poop
. My dogs POOP the size of a full grown Yorkie. If a Yorkie does tons I don't want to KNOW how much these 5 do in a day.
