Hi Paula, If this doesn't help please see the vet for some antibiotics...OK....

1.  Give some vitamin C ( 250 to 500 mg per day) for about 2 weeks.
VERY safe - The ESTER C is easy on the belly - so look for Ester C in the Human vitamin section of the store.

2.  I would also give her some NuVET vitamins / Great to fight off any possible infection.
NuVET helps to re-build her immune system .
It just won The BEST vitamin supplement of the year!
Call and ask them to send you a small bottle ( 1 month is 20.00)
