    Male dog. 11 years old. No appetite for two days. Mostly laying in bed all day, no eating and little drinking. Abdomen seems bloated. Also today has diarrhea. Very lethargic. This came on very suddenly, since two days ago he was perfectly fine.

    Did you ever get an answer as to what was actually going on with your dog? Did he eventually get well? I’m wondering because reading your comment I thought it sounded just like what my female cocker is currently experiencing & I am starting to get really worried about her! She has barely eaten or had anything to drink or even moved in almost 3 days now!!
