o no,sounds like his picked somit up,get well soon robbie.maybe starve him 24 hour to get the bug out of the system. good idea to take him to the vets maybe he will need a course of anti biotics if your not happy with him :luck: :luck:

Thanks Davidh,,Robbie did pick up,,but not the same,,this mornings all hell broke loose,,he has scoots with loads of blood and kept bring up water,,not sick,,just came up,,John was out with Gary,,no car,,,I knew 2pm would be too late,,so got my bro in laws car,,had to be at the vet before 11.50am as they would close for 2 hours,,I made it,,yep speeding in an atomatic car,,not drove one for over 25yrs,,but we got there,,Robbie got 3 jabs and tablets,,a rehydrate drink,,Robbie was sick not long after we got back,,just water,,but fine since. He's ill,,but doing well,,vet said I got him there quick he should be fine,,,Vet said its a nasty bug and to watch Gizmo. If Giz looks like going off food or just quiet,,hes at the vet,,,,I realy though I would lose Robbie this morning,,the very same happened to Abby,,she died that night an hour after bringing up the water,,she died on the vets table,,,Robbie can get chicken tomorrow,,just a little,,might had feed him ,,if hes still doing well,,sorry for the long post. :teehee: ,,Robs temp is normal also,,lungs and heart fine,,so this did bring my hopes up he would be fine,,will let you know how he is in a day or so,,, :thumbsup:

Robbie is doing well,,not been sick or scoots today,,he ate tiny amounts of chicken,,cant give him very much just now, He's very tired, but looking loads better than he did yesterday. I think he's on the mend (touch wood) :sweating: . Gizmo still fine,,Got to thank my lass Rachel as I went to pieces when he kept bringing up water,,I thought his lungs were full of fluid,,thats what killed my wee Abbey 15 yrs ago,,I realy thought he was going to die. Why do we get so attached to these wee dogs (w00t) . Im glad rob has put weigh on since he stopped racing as he has lost a few lbs,,but im sure he will put it all back on when better.

Thanks Fleesh.
