Sorry to hear about the lousy weather in Mo.
It’s 29 here at 1:37. It rained earlier, so it may be ice out there.
My wife believes in feeding sick puppies cold cooked rice to settle their stomachs.
Gracie, our 6mo puppy was sick one day last week. She got the nasal spray from my wife’s night table and chewed holes in it and devoured the contents. She was laying on me in the recliner when I felt my leg get warm. She upchucked a huge amount all over my pants leg, chair, and floor. Twice more times that day also, but not as bad, and not on me. Little devil got into my wife’s ice water glass on the night table a number of times, but the other night she turned the full 32oz’s over onto the bed. Oh the joy! To be parents again at our ages!
With my heated mattress pad, I'd probably get electrocuted if a pet did that.
Rice is my go to. Mix in a little chicken or vanilla ensure. I also give a few teaspoons of water sweetened with raw honey when they are coughing.
