Hi I just wondered if anyone else's Bassets suffer with being sick in a morning??
When my older Basset Barry was a baby he did it all the time & we took him the vets where they did blood tests & we changed his food etc but it still kept happening.....until I spoke to a neighbour who keeps Akitas and she mentioned with deep chested dogs they need feeding late in the evening (just a bit of something to stay in their tummies overnight!)
We did this with Barry & it has worked after spending a fortune at the vets worried something was wrong with him!
Now my new pup Betty is having the same problem....I have fed her later in the evening just a little snack but this morning she was sick again!?
Sorry to graphic!....but its like bile nothing in it so she is empty!
Just wondering if this is a common Basset trait? As Barry has now started suffering with sore red patches under his arms & after researching i've discovered these 'hotspots' are very common in Bassets so with a little help from the forum on here i've hopefully started to get his armpits better & not sore for the poor thing!
I'm sure Barry & Betty would appreciate any help! x
