Basically I've been quite unwell since Monday. Feeling sick, headaches, dizzy, bad tummy etc

What has this to do with a dog I hear you asking, well today our 17 wk old border collie isn't right. She had her walk as normal this morning and ate her breakfast (according to my dad) now my parents have gone out for the day and she's turned her nose up at her lunch and has been sick twice. She's had a sip of water, and not been for a poo for a while although she in still wee-ing ok. She's now all curled up by the radiator looking all sad and sorry for herself.
Do you think a) she could've caught anything from me
b) I should get her to the vets now?

Any ideas would be really helpful, I'm not normally a worrier but it doesn't help when you feel poorly too!

Lol, serves me for reading quick I thought I read 17 years old:o:o
I would either offer something more palatable up (boiled chicken and see if you can temp her to eat) very small amount and see if she can keep that down, if she cannot then don't offer anything more till after a 12 hour period and water little and often. If she is really out of sorts then vet.
If she has not passed faeces for a few days or she is straining then I would make an appointment for the vet asap.
 
Well shes been to the loo now and she is looking much better, and im guessing she is feeling much happier too as ive just caught her sitting on the window ledge and she knows she isnt allowed there! I wish my metabolism worked that quickly :( Thanks Cayla, for putting my mind at rest!
 
Lol, I also read border terrier in the 1st (looked at her) and thought "she looks like border collie to me) then read back:o:o:o
I think she needs a picture post, as in a new ones with a few pictures;) she is very pretty:)
