Shes not been eating much recently so i gave her some gravy on sunday with her mixer because when we have osme spare we do and she laps it up, well she wasnt interested! She LOVES her food so that was worrying in it self. Then shes been really docile recently, shes a mad border collie normally. She keeps sleeping like all the time. She was sick this morning, but like yellow watery stuff?
And she was just sleeping and then barked randomly?? Shes really scaring me now! Shes just turned completly the opposite to nomal??
My dad thought could be because shes malting LOADS or maybe her first season but its stil so odd. 9as it was jsut not eating and a bit docile and now has got worse today)
I wanted to take her on a nice gentle walk to see how she was?? But should i?? Yesterday i took her and she heeled the whole way which is ace, but when she normally has a little pull until she gets into the swing its odd??
Im by myself at hoem which is woryring me even more!! Argh! I calle dmy mom and she said maybe take her up the lane and she how she copes and give me a call to see how she goes??
Ive tryed giving her plain boring mixer to see whether hell ea it but no! And she will only drink a tiny bit out of my hand and wont out of the bowl!
I think when mom gets back we will take her to the vets because its not like her at all. do you think this is wise or any otehr suggestions??

Thanks
 
If she is subdued, off her food and has been sick, I'd take her to the vets to be on the safe side. She may have swallowed something she shouldn't have?
We had similar side effects when our bitch did that.
 
Second that for the vet. Always better to be safe than sorry. If a good eater goes off their food it's a sure sign something is n't right.
 
H_H- Well shes always eating stuff off the dekcing, we have an apple tree that is cooking apples and some little ones come off, shes so inquistive so maybe that! But i did brush them off teh decking earlier so i duno maybe she caught one yesterday i dont know.
Yeah when we did our puppy foundation award they said if they go off there food go to the vets!
I think ill take her for a walk because she barked at me then and jumped up so wil be bakc in a little bit! Keep suggestiosn coming though please guys!
 
i just took her on a walk! She was soo good! She loved it!

She walked past too huge (in both ways

) horses and was ace!! But agian shes flat out now?!?! Ive just walked through the door! It is hot aswell i spose!
 
how old is she hun?

if she is a young'un that has tendencies to eat, id starve her for 24 hrs, then offer bland food like chicken.

OR if she could have possibly eaten anything she really needs to get to the vets, longer its left the worse it could potentially be -

im not trying to worry you, but i see it all the time in work - better be safe than sorry

hope she is ok

shes 14months tomorrow!! Wooh!
Yeah i think well pop her down later because were going away on monday and its not fair to leave her ill with the women looking after her.
Thank you!
 
Agree with above. My girls go very quiet when they are in season. rottie is looking very sorry for herself, she is in season at the moment. She has put herself on a dog food diet.
My border stays in bed for a week when she is in season, comes out for a wee and runs straight back in.
