I owned a Golden Retriever named Billy and he is now 9months old. Billy is a very health puppy. He is active and likes to stay along with my family members. He stays in our house with us. We have another two 11months old and another 10 year old local dog staying outside the house. Recently, Billy refused to eat for more than a week. I have tried giving him all types of delicious food right from steamed to stir fry chicken meat, dog can food and other food that we think is healthy for him. He just refused to eat. I even need to force him to eat through spoon feeding. He would ate a little bit only. He doesn't show any sickness. He runs and play actively with my other doggies. He loves to drink a lot of plain water. I tried to make him eat by telling him that if he finishes his meal he would be given a treat. Well, he obeyed at first but later he refused as well. He would opt for the treats instead of his food. When he is outside the house, he would go to eat the grass. So, I thought he might be sick. So, I took him to the vet. The vet told me that he had a fever and gave him an injection and commented that his blood is infected. Vet also told me that he has not enough blood and they gave him another injection to gain Billy's appetite. The vet also advised me to give him antibiotics and vitamins for a week. I thought Billy's problem would be over after the injections and medications for the last 3 days. To my disappointment, he still refused to eat.
Yesterday, I found him having ulcer under his tounge. Is there anything wrong with Billy for loosing his appetite? He is getting thin now. I hope you would revert to my email. Thanks..
