shih tzu stomach noises

20 11:13:18

Question
My shih tzu Ziggy has been up all night with spasms in her hind legs and her stomach is making all sorts of noises.  She is acting fine other wise, except the not sleeping part.  She also acts like she has a lot of phlegm in her throat.  I think I may call the vet in the morning.

Answer
Tammy - Yes, I think a vet visit would be a good idea.  The spasms in the legs concern me?  I wonder if she is in some pain.  At first I though stomach virus but not sure because of the leg spasms.
Let me know what you vet says?
OK

About this group:


Unfortunately, most veterinary schools provide inadequate education on basic canine and feline nutrition.
Nutrition may occupy as little as a one week long seminar in their many years of education to become veterinarians.
For answers to nutrition they look to pet food manufacturers, which readily supply them with specialty, preventative diets for all life stages and ailments. Such an example is the Science Diet / Hill's Brand.

My Name is Marie Peppers and I want to help you learn what is good for your pets. I offer a Free Q and A site for Alternatives in Pet Medications and Treatments. Also, I am glad to guide you in proper feeding and healthy diets. I have a vast knowledge in supplements and vitamins, too.

Please join us - I am ready to answer you questions in regards to pet health and medications. Here we will talk about the choices your VET doesn't want you to know about.





Thanks
Marie
