Question
My jack russel is about 10 years old and got to acting funny and its been4 days since she has eaten, she drinks and urinates but no bowel movement, can you help,Iam on a fixed income and cant really afford a vet but if she need one I guess I ll find the money some where

Answer
Hi Alice,
It's impossible to diagnose over the internet and there could be hundreds of reasons why she is not eating. Unfortunately the best and only way to get proper diagnosis and treatment is through a veterinarian. Your jack is going to go downhill FAST if she doesn't get seen right away. 4 days without food is critical. Ask the vet if you can pay on a payment plan and get in there right away. Best of luck!
