Is my staffy ill??

Hi all I'm new on here just need a little advice my staffy just came to bed fell on his bed and started crying when I went to him he moved round and was slavering then wet himself while still layed down a few mins later he was up but not himself now he's flat out. Has anyone had this before? He is 13 but still fit and happy

Thanx

Hi and welcome from Fo and me.

Does sound like he is out of sorts from what you describe. Has anything upset him tonight or did it just happen all of a sudden ?

If your worried about him, I would suggest a visit to the vet to make sure.

It does sound like he is in pain, from whinning to shivering and wetting himself.
happened when he lied down?
does any of his muscles/stomach feel hotter than the rest of him? allot of heat in one area can mean pain.
has he ate something today?
sickness diarrhea?
recent injury at the park etc?

I'd pop him the vet if I was you. Best to be safe

It was as if he froze when he laid down I sat with him and as I talked to him his little tail was wagging a little bit bless ( he's always wagging) don't think anything had upset him going to check on him now thanx for replys if he's no better will be going to the vet

Aww poor boy do let us know how he is

Oh no, let us know how the vet visit goes

some thing does'nt sound right,i would get him checked out with your vet

Spoke to the vet today they said see how he is Over next few days came home from work and he seems fine back to his usual self wagging away wanting to play just see how he goes tonight fingers crossed. Thanx for advice was REALY worried last night

My gosh how worrying, I am pleased the vets have given him the once over, I so hope it doesn't happen again x

Lets hope it was a one off.

Hopefully just a one off then, glad he's doing ok now x

maybe he ate something he shouldnt of! 13 a ripe old age too! hope hes feeling better! there was a news report recently about a substance thats been washing up on british beaches ( i think its something oil based ) and dog owners are being warned that dogs have been eating it and some have actually died from it but wherever u live dogs do like to check things out (willow went through a poo eating stage)
