Just left him back in his bed, after having to go downstairs to see what all the noise was for, just after midnight.
Turns out the poor boy had diarrhea and had made a right mess of his bed and himself
He had his second vaccination yesterday morning so I'm hoping it's just a reaction from that, since he's not had anything different to eat/drink today.
Still, he was bright and lively enough when I took him outside before putting him back to bed, so hopefully it's just a one off.
I must admit though, that I'm not looking forward to cleaning up the mess he made in the garden when I first took him outside on seeing what the problem was. _________________ Craig (& Bran)

That was the plan
But what, may I ask, are you doing up and online at this time of night?
I've at least got the excuse of having had to deal with Bran, and the computer still being switched on when I had to go downstairs. _________________ Craig (& Bran)

Well, Bran appears to be ok today, although I did play it safe and didn't give him any breakfast.
The only hang over from his episode last night is that he's basically slept most of the day.
I haven't had him outside since this morning though, as after last night, and his shower today, I'm still waiting on his towels drying. They are now in the dryer though, so after I've had some dinner, I'll take him out and see what 'passes' _________________ Craig (& Bran)

Hope the lovely Bran is all better now Craig
It's not at all unusual for an upset tummy after their jabs - his does sound extreme but I've experienced the runny tums x 3 - NOT good!!!!
Thankfully they all made it outside before squit city but cleaning up the patio afterwards was extremely gross - I don't envy you at all!!!! _________________ Staffies are my life! Visit us at www.staffies.co.uk |

Well, after a late night, small snack yesterday and a normal breakfast this morning, he appears to be fine.
I did some thinking yesterday (dangerous I know), and I'm thinking that it's actually a reaction to the paste I got for his Kong toy. Thinking back, he's been a little bit off colour each time he's had it. So he's not going to get it for a while now, and then I'll give him a little of it in a couple of weeks time, and if he has a similar reaction, then that's the cause and the paste can go to my brother, whose GSD likes it and doesn't have any problems with it. _________________ Craig (& Bran)

I've also had to stop using the puppy paste for the kong.. Each time we used it both pups where sick for a few day's.. it took two bouts before we put it together.. (they had also been wormed the first time).

That sounds pretty much what's been happening to Bran. _________________ Craig (& Bran)

Well, currently sitting with Bran curled up on my lap feeling sorry for himself.
Silly boy managed to nudge a tin of chocolate chip cookies onto the floor while I was in the next room. I initially thought that he hadn't managed to eat any of them, but 2 hours later and he started throwing up. Once on the carpet and twice in the porch.
He seems bright enough when he's moving around, but as soon as he stops he just wants to curl up and sleep.
So no dinner for him tonight and we'll see how he is tomorrow. On further checking the biscuit tin, he managed to eat 2 of them, maybe that'll convince him not to eat them again. Yeah, sure it will _________________ Craig (& Bran)
