Hi Amber's friends! Melissa taking over today. I have such bad news. Today I woke up in the morning & found a big stinky pile of diarrhea in the living room. We thought it was Chloe who did it because the day before, she had diarrhea too. But then we checked our girls' backsides & found out it was Amber. When I cleaned up the mess, I noticed red color watery type substance around the stinky pile. It was blood!!!! And it was a LOT!!!! Then when we brought the girls out for a walk, Amber pooped again & there was more blood. Today we called up the vet & the vet said there's no need to bring her in. He just advised us to feed her plain rice & chicken meat. We starved her this morning & she just had her din dins two hours ago. She was so hungry that she performed many of her tricks by herself without me asking her to. Cute! Then I brought her out again with the other two but she did not poop. I guess she pooped everything out already this morning. Hopefully her poop will go back to normal tomorrow. We are so worried. Guess what? It's not only her who has a problem. Faith & Chloe have mites attacking their bodies & their itching like crazy! Faith is eating her own paws everyday & it's all raw now & there's hardly any hair left on them. They two will be on anti-biotics for the next 24 days. I gave the girls a bath today with special medicated shampoo so hopefully the mites will be killed. What happened to our poor girls? We are so worried.
Will keep you guys posted on their improvements.

Hello Ambie!
Gosh, I hpe you are already feeling better!
I've had the same symptoms about 2 months ago and my humans were terrified 'cause they thought it could be parvo... fortnately, it seems that I just ate something that troubled my intestins a lot (maybe one of the 4353653673 things I try to eat in my walks). The vet told us that bloody stools are quite normal when our intestins/stomachs are irritaded!
Don't forget to drinh the rice water, it is reeaaaally good for diarrhea!
My human always gives me a humans anti-diarrheal (maybe for childreen) and it works really good! And don't forget to eat loooot's of water!
We're all worried with u, Ambie! Keep us informed, ok?
Wooofies from Pipa, distant Portugal
(I'ms so sorry for all the english mistakes.. Oh, God, we don't EAT water, we drink it... Jeeee)
Pipa
Oh no! Your poor babies! It is not uncommon for some dogs to get a bout of colitis sometimes with blood too. Some dogs get something called hemorragic gastroenteritis (bloody diarrhea with vomiting). Sounds like the "bland diet" is doing the trick; I am sure she'll produce some poop within the next day = )
Sending chiheagle hugs!
Oh No...The poor girls...
Me & my Mom are sending thoughts & prayers & I'm sending Extra Good Lhasa Vibes to all of the girls...
Please keep us posted...
Abby xxxooo
This is very scary. I hope that you can find out what is making everybody sick and itchie. Poor Amber-Mae! Big Mango zen coming your way.
Slobbers,

Oh no! I hope it's nothing serious. The three of you will be in my thoughts and prayers. Get well soon!
Boy, when it rains it pours. I am sorry to hears about the stomach/ bowel issues and the itchies! I hope you all get better soon! Thanks for coming over to our blog and leaving us well wishes. Payton feels all the love.
Peace,
Jamie
Oh, when it rains, it pours.
Poor Amber, Faith and Chloe!
It was not your days!
Just read that Amber you were so hungry that you performed many of your tricks by yourself without being asked, I felt so sorry for you, dear.
Get well soon, lovely girls.
Sometimes after I've feasted on cat poo (it's a delicious delicasy that leaves you with the most amazing breath!) I have the same problem, Amber. The 2-leggeds will starve you for a day then it's back to normal. Poor Chloe - sounds like she's having an awful time. Maybe she needs some of Eric's footwear?
Your pal,
Petey
Oh boy oh boy. We feel so sorry for them! We had a mild case of ticks too, and ughh, they itch like hell! Poor Amber, she was starved! Lets hope they all get well soon!
My mom has seen the same problem in a dog who has eaten kitty litter. It was an irritated bowel. That dog lived to be 19 years old. We hope it is something simple and easy to cure. Sending beagle love and hugs to you.
love & wags,
River
I hope Amber gets better soon. Chow Chow has the runs too and we haven't figure out what's the problem.
Take good care!
Hi Amber,
I hope you and your sisters are feeling a little better now. I am sorry about the bad time you are having. I am sending you some puggy hugs and kisses!
Get well soon!
Love Clover xo
Hi Amber.
I hope you & your sisters are feeling better. You must have really scared your mom.
I'm on antibotics for 10 days for a throat infection.
Take care.
Love Ruby
I hope everyone is doing better now, thinking of you all.

I hope all the girls are feeling better soon!
Amber Mae! I came over to thank you for stopping by my blog and welcoming me, but then I saw that you were sick!! I am so sad for you!
I had an intestinal infection a few years ago and had some bloody poop. My momma just about fainted! It cleared up pretty quickly- I hope yours does too!
Your newest pal,
Pearl
Oh AMBER FAITH CHLOE
get well soon ok for all of you...
it's so bad when we are sick..
mommy is worrieed too much too...
i pray to God that He will heal you now!!!
Amen
Oh dear, we hope you alll are feeling better soon!
Oh no poor Girls ! I hope they will be fine again soon. I don't like when my friends are ill.....
Kisses, Faya
Is it a possability that they got the mites from "Scruffy"???
boiled chicken and rice are always good for doggies with upset tummies, but canned pumpkin works wonders!
I hope you all feel better,

I hope everydog starts to feel better soon!
No problem with the ribbon necklaces. It IS pricey to send to overseas. Maybe you can find some similar party necklaces at your local store?
Get better SOON!!!!
HugsSunny&Scooter
Eeks! Feel better soon!
We had a problem at our dog run yesterday too - diarrhea city! Luckily I don't have it but my best friend Pete and my girlfriend Lexi do, so Momma won't let me see them for a few days.
Hopefully it's just something little and passes quickly (and firmly, har har). You might try some canned pumpkin if they sell that where you live, otherwise you can try some boiled orange squash or pumpkin, cooled and mashed up, like a big scoopful of it. That usually helps to firm things up and I love the way it tastes.
Feel better soon, y'all!
Biggie
Oh no!! I they are all okay...

Maggie and Bosley are sending you lots of "get well" wags. We all hope you are feeling better soon.
Oh no!! Just saw the new post - really hope Amber, Faith and Chloe get better soon.
Very worried - did the vet check if Amber has something stuck in her intestines? I get diarrhoea sometimes but blood seems a bit scary!
Please let us know how they are doing soon!
Love and lots of slobbery hugs,
Honey the Great Dane
Oh dear! We hope you are all feeling better soon! My human says that bright red blood in the stool is a sign of lower GI irritation and usually isn't as serious as it looks. Even though it looks really scary! Big Pupi suffered from this chronically before our humans figured out his corn allergy.
Mom says that a spoonful of plain canned pumpkin (NOT the pie mix) will work miracles with your over-boiled rice and boiled meat dinners. The fiber in it will firm the stools - but too much of it will make the poobles worse. Try 2 tablespoons to start. And be prepared for some major constipation after such an upset. Poor lady!
We're sure you know all this already! Could Amber have chewed and swallowed the mites and had a reaction to them?
We're sending AireZen to all of you! We hope you girls all feel better soon, especially you, Amber!
Love ya lots,
Maggie and Mitch

I am so sorry to hear about Amber-Mae's tummy troubles and the mites attacking Chloe and Faith. I hope the rice and chicken do the trick and the antibiotics help too. Let us know how the girls are feeling.
Your friend,
Niamh
Oh poor Amber...hope you'll get well soon. Keeping paws crossed for 3 of you. Hope the medicated shampoo helps for Chloe and Faith. I have that problem on occasions. LS usually spray me with a non-toxic botanical neem product (forgot the name) and it helps.
I had diarrhea for the past 2 days too, I don't know why and mummy is wondering too... Hope we can be well soon :)
Amber, Chloe and Faith!
I have my paws crossed for you all!
I hope you get better soon!
Take care

Poor ladies. I hope that by the time you are reading this Amber, Faith & Chloe have improved 100%.
Hi Amber, Chloe and Faith, How have you gals been? I hope you have recovered by now.
Luv
Snowball
Hope you all feel better soon. Us doggies must stay healthy to take care of our humans :)
we are sorry to hear that the girls are not feeling well. maybe they should stick to a certain type of diet for now.
manufactured treats and other toys may have contents/ materials that are bad for their health. Also, are they under heart worm prevention? Getting bloody stool is very serious. we hope that the Vet gave her medicine or something.
May we suggest a test on her platelets, CBC, etc? It is better to do so to get rid of all other speculations. We are worried for Amber and Co. We hope they will be treated soon. :(
You will all be in our prayers.
drooly kisses,
Aki
Hi, Ambie...

Oh no! we are sending healing vibes!
Amber-Mae, I hope you and your sis's feel better really soon. I had blood in my poop a bout a month ago but I wouldn't eat and the vet did test and didn't find anything and put me on antibotic and de-wormer just to be on the safe side, I did get better and then they put me on 1/8 tyson powder a day. But let me tell you that stuff is nasty. The vet also told mommy to boil me chicken in water and rice that is all I could have and it made me better. I sure hope you get better soon and send xoxoxoxo your way. Love, Sami
Best wishes for everyone to make a good recovery!

I am sorry you were not feeling well, my mommy feeds me rice with boiled ground beef when I am ill, kinda makes me want to be ill all the time, it is my favorite meal.
Oh, that sounds no fun at all! Hope you get better soon!!!!
Woofs, Johann
Hi Amber,
I hope you are feeling better. When I have the 'loose poops', Mom gives me ground beef and rice. It's super yummy and helps 'firm' everything up.
Your pal,
Kirby
OH MY! All three of you are sick? Itchin' and poopin'? You poor Girls!!!
We're sendin' ya healin' terrier zen for itchin' and tummy soothin'....

Lotsa love,
Scruffy, Lacie and Stan
oh no! you poor girls! we hope you will be feeling better soon!
Ooh! We will keep you all in our thoughts, please be well soon!
Rice helps in tum tum, if it doesn't get better you might wanna try carbon (charcoal) pills too. They should help you alleviate the nasty purge...
As for mites, we're not too sure as we have never had them before ever, will those solution like Revo helps in your situation now?
Huggies!
Rudolf & Goofy
We are so sorry to hear that Amber is ill. Hopefully her tummy will settle and she will be back to her normal bubbly self. We also hope Faith and Chloe get rid of the mites. That doesn't sound like fun at all. We will send positive thoughts towards you girls!
AMBEEEEEER!!!!! My cute sweet little friend!!!!! I hope you are feeling better, cutie!!! I'm so worried! :((( I missed you so much (I wasn't on the bloggy for a long time) and now I find out that you are not feeling well... :((( I am so sad...
We send you all big kisses and hugs!
Ronin
Sad to hear about this.
I wish them well!

Hi Melissa
I haven't read the other comments. You've probably already been advised that blood in runny poop is a sign of a digestive upset. I hope Amber is feeling a lot better now. I hope Faith and Chloe's skin problems have settled down too. Is it hot and humid at the moment ?
Please take good care of yourselves coz Hammer won't be blogging again until 2009.
Love from Susan and Hammer and our family
I hope you girls are ok and better now
~ Bae
That is horrible. I hope you Dawgs will have a speedy recovery. I for one know how irritating it is to have a bad itch. Do get well soon!

Hi Girls,
I hope you are feeling better now? My Missus was surprised that the vet did not give any injection to prevent bloody stools. Anyway, how's your condition? Are you girls getting better? Geez, I wish I was there to take care all of you.
Love,
Homer
Oh dear Amber! I heard from Homer and rushed right over! I am so sorry to hear that you are not feeling well. Your whole family must be so worried. Please get well soon and keep us all updated. Big hugs to you, Faith, Chloe and Melissa!

Please feel better. Amber. Follow the doctors advice and you'll be better in no time. And poor Faith and Chloe, you've just got to get rid of those nasty mites. And Melissa, thanks for taking care of our friends.
