Oh No, Sammie The Snorkie Isn't Feeling Well...

Yesterday we had the outer band of Hurricane Irene come through our city. The winds were 45-55 miles an hour, trees swaying, branches falling etc. This was Sammie's first tropical storm and I think it upset her.

You know how they say that animals can sense an impending quake, storm etc.? I think it effected her health wise. Right before the storm hit, we caught her chewing on a pen she stole off the desk. :-)  It was pretty much intact when we took it away, but can't say if any small pieces (or even some ink) was eaten by her.

She threw up about 6 times in a span of 2 hours. I went to bed around 2 am and by then it seemed to have stopped.

Woke up this morning, fed the dogs and she threw up again after about a half hour. :-(  Only once, so I am thinking (hoping) that her stomach still isn't settled yet from yesterday. Gave her a small cookie bone and she was able to keep that down. Right now she is at my feet playing with Gabby, Sammie the Snorkie seems to be ok...for now anyway.
Will keep you posted.
