*ding* What is things that make a dog barf, Alex? Uhh, yeah. So. dinner last night was great, but man alive, I cannot eat that much food anymore and it really made me sad, heh :) Today I spent a bunch of time cooking, and when we went out to do some last minute grocery shopping, Gbic decided to pull down a bag of brown sugar off a low shelf and start munching away. She only ate between half a cup and a cup of it, but a couple of hours later, it started to not agree with her. And it started agreeing on the rug. In several places. Apparently massive sugar consumption is dehydrating to a dog, so she'd been drinking a LOT of water. And then proceded to spew that up with that horrible mucous that I can totally relate to. She barfed three times before Rob got here so I went online and got scared that she might have the dreaded BLOAT. I called the vet and the receptionist took down my information and asked the vet if we should bring her in or not. Gbic had been kind of moping a bit, and when I took her outside she spewed in the grass, and she just wasn't animated at all. The receptionist called back and while I was on the phone with her, Rob arrived and Gbic started howling and dancing around. So, we agreed no worries there. Took away her food and water for a bit to make sure that she wasn't going to over-indulge and puke again.
