Thanks AM, it's been quite a nightmare going on for a whole year now, on and off, trying to get food into her some days it would come straight back up, then it would stay down immediately afterwards, it was all so very strange, but my gut instinct told me that it was some kind of worm/parasite that kept moving around and sometimes settling in her stomach making her vomit upon eating. These parasites DO suck on the stomach lining and small intestines, hence the vomiting pink froth that night, and also hence, what came out the other end one morning with that big pile of pink froth on top of that!
As the vet said, we have to hit it hard now, and a friend of mine has just told me that her little border terrier got this a year ago and she said it was quite a nightmare to rid him of it, it went on for ages she said!
Hi Jeanette, I'd definitely get it checked out and at the very least ask your vet about this, as sometimes, they get no symptoms at all, except for intermittent vomitting and diarrhea and whenever you search on the internet for those symptoms, it always says you should look to worms first and de-worm. This giardia needs a lot more than that though, it has to be treated quite aggressively.
Regarding the move, well that's another loooooong one, but it's a beautiful bungalow and there's a link in the thread here:
