3 year old male sheltie not eating or drinking?

  • Posted on October 28, 2010 at 9:26 pm

I have a 3 year old sheltie that is not eating or drinking. He is pretty laid back and really does not want to go for his walks, but grab a stuffed animal or a couple old socks and he will play fetch all day long. He acts like he wants food and even ate part of a sandwich that my daughter dropped on the ground but then threw it up. He managed to get a little excited about dry cherrios and ate a couple handfuls of that today and managed to keep them down but that is it. He was previously an outdoor dog but wanted to come inside so we have been crate training him. The only other big thing we did was take him to the groomer and they gave him a flea bath and haircut. I am totally confused because he is unusally a chow hound. I would REALLY be concerned if it were not for the fact that he will play fetch till your arm falls off running back and forth the whole time.. BTW, yes he is pooping and it is not loose. I know, call the VET I have & I will take him 2morrow but in the meantime???
WOW..a couple teaspoons full of honey and he perked up. I made him some boiled chicken, got to let it cool but he is pacing the kitchen floor smacking his chops… He even drank some water after the honey. Will keep u posted
