Seperation Anxiety is Intense!
This is my first time to experience seperation anxiety first hand.
I've never experienced it as a person but with Bo and Cons...maan!
They're just like people!
Bo had fever when he first arrived at Val's house,
now Cons has fever too!
Oh dear!

for everyone
i was awaken at 4 am by my poor baby constantine pacing around my room... (his dog collar has a bell and i really don't usually fall into a deep sleep at night ) i observed him for a while if he was feeling the floor coz i thought maybe he wants to pee and he only pees on rough surfaces but he wasn't. instead, he looked as if he was going to throw up! i turned my lights on and he continued trying to throw up but all he puked were droplets of yellowish fluid... i wonder what's wrong with my baby... i brought him outside coz i thought maybe he'll pee or something or perhaps drink water so he'll feel a little better. but when we went outside, he chewed on grass. i just allowed him to do so coz my cousin and my boyfriend who are both dog lovers told me that dogs really chew on grass when they're sick. dogs are self-medicating and they know the right type of plants to eat when they're sick that they know would help them feel better. after about an hour, he was done with his self-medicating grass eating and so we returned to my room and thankfully, he fell into a deep sleep after a while. i already brought him to the vet yesterday and found out that he has fever so we were given some vitamins and medicines for him to take. he willingly took his vitamins yesterday and i've given him a shot of his medicine just a while ago but he didn't want to take his vitamins today... how can he get well if doesn't want to eat anything and drink his medicine... i don't know what to do with him... i noticed yesterday that he had appetite after we took him out for a little walk. so later, since i'm going out with my hubby, i asked his mommy maid to talk him out for a walk and hopefully with a little exercise and increased appetite after, he'll get well soon..."

Comments:
The vet said last time that Bo had fever possibly because he was stressed or just getting used to his new home/environment so I guess that's also the reason why Cons is sick. We just gave Bo medicine and the next day, he was doing well already. Bo also threw up a few days ago and yesterday although I don't know how it looked coz I wasn't home at that time. We asked the vet and she said that we should just observe and if he throws up a lot, we should give him medicine. I hope Cons gets well soon :)
maybe,i'm not sure...weird, during the first few days that he was here, he always goes back in the house after peeing in the garden. but now, he doesn't, even if I call out to him so now we always have to put him on a leash
