Hi Theresa. You may want to have your vet do a barium X-ray. Everytime any of my guys showed these same symptoms and didn't respond to amoxi, pepto, carafate it turned out to be a hairball in the tummy. They never created a full blockage but it did cause an extremely sore tummy. I've had this happen to me three times over the last 7 years. I use Vaseline in lieu of Petromalt on a regular basis (one to two times per week) and I'm grooming more frequently now, almost daily as opposed to weekly I'm hoping this helps. Good luck Amy Robbin Manager, Human Resources SeaChange International, Inc. Phone: (978) 897-0100 [Posted in FML issue 4356]
