My poor boy Brody (border collie) has the gulps 😟
He use to have it every few weeks or couple months but today is the 6th day. 1at day was very bad. Gulping and licking and panicking.
He has 3-4 small meals a day on a disgestion support vet food. But that night he was bad. He got himself hot and anxious and tryied panting but the gulps stopped him and it was like wind sucking.
I was told by my get to not let him eat grass but he was in such a state I let him out. He ate grass like a horse. Gobbled it down… but only certain patches. Then made himself sick.
I took him back to bed but every 15min or so it would start again. I gave him pepto bismol from the moment this started and it didn’t help at all. He was sick 3 more times. I was up all night.
At some point I fell asleep and just awake but thank god he was nice and quiet and relaxed.
for several days after he was not himself and had a few gulp episodes but nothing like the other night.
Then last night he started again.
At about 11pm so I gave him some pepto and a hand ful of food and put him to bed. Every 2 hours I had to do this.
it’s not 12:30pm and he’s still having issues.
I have the vets at 3:20.
I go away in a week and so scared to leave him. This boy is my life.
