Jamo Posted February 27, 2011 Report Share Posted February 27, 2011 myshka has constantly been sick for about 1 and a half hours my mum and stepdad went out for a meal and left the babysitter looking after the dogs and my lil bro while i went round to my nanas house and according to them they bought a bargain bucket from KFC so like 10 pieces of chicken with the bones aswell loads of chips etc.. and they decided to give the remains to nanuk and myshka (idiots) nanuk is fine but myshka is constantly coughing up flem and the odd bit of chip and she looks soo sad her eyes are really drowsy and she doesnt look well at all we think maybe shes swallowed a bone or something and got it stuck but we dont no help anyone please ??

HeatherZeman Posted February 27, 2011 Report Share Posted February 27, 2011 Look into her mouth/throat, do you see any foreign objects? Is she lethargic (just laying around, disinterested in everything)? Has she puked at all? If you answered yes to any of these questions, she most likely has swallowed a chicken bone or several. Here's someone in a similar situation (KFC chicken to boot), maybe this can help: http://dogs.thefuntimesguide.com/2006/05/dog_ate_chicken_bones.php Unfortunately there's not much you can do other than monitor her behaviour over the next day/night, and take her to the vet if needed. Hope everything's okay! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamo Posted February 27, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2011 thanks for that +1 shes been sick but its just flem like clear stuff we'll just have to watch her Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lil Miss Bump Posted February 27, 2011 Report Share Posted February 27, 2011 maybe the food just didn't agree with her hun....and if you'd been sick for a while you'd look knackered too! Personally i'd make sure there is lots of water available, keep checking her breathing and if in doubt get her to the vet. Please keep us informed tho hun, give her big cuddles from me xxx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
husky princess Posted February 27, 2011 Report Share Posted February 27, 2011 cooked chicken bones should never be given to a dog. they can splinter and damage their insides when they pass through. monitor her pooping as well. you may well need to seek a vet KFC is **** food for humans let alone dogs and pups. it is totally loaded with salt and fat. totally not suitable (I know it was the remains but still totally unsuitable), please educate your family so this doesnt happen again. hope she recovers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lil Miss Bump Posted February 27, 2011 Report Share Posted February 27, 2011 claire you make it sound like it is tom's fault. Any idiot should know not to give kfc to any dog never mind a sibe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
husky princess Posted February 27, 2011 Report Share Posted February 27, 2011 claire you make it sound like it is tom's fault. apologies if it came across like that, it wasnt the intention. which is why i said 'please educate your family' as they may not know that cooked bones can be given to dogs. it needs to be clear as a cooked bone can kill a dog especially a puppy so being rather direct is important on such an important matter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BingBlaze n Skyla Posted February 27, 2011 Report Share Posted February 27, 2011 oh poor girl - i hope shes ok soon - if she stops drinking i would get her to a vet - but so long as shes drinking she should be ok - n probably just needs to get all the junk food out of her system Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyshqa Posted February 27, 2011 Report Share Posted February 27, 2011 Dog food and dog treats are sold for a reason I wouldn't be using those baby sitters again if I were you! Make sure you get their details and if poor Myshka gets any worse insist they pay the vets bills I agree with what's been said above; keep an eye on her and if she gets any worse get her to a vet. Really hope she gets well soon, poor puppy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SarahNukka&Shadow Posted February 27, 2011 Report Share Posted February 27, 2011 Hows she doing now Tom any better? Is she still drinking water? etc? If shes been sick alot you need to make sure she keeps drinking so she doesnt get dehydrated. Poor girl, hope shes better this morning. As Steph said I'd be giving the vet bill to the idiot babysitter.. KFC isnt really good for PEOPLE let alone dogs and you would think that would be common sence to the silly girl!
