Min Pin HELP!!!!

Hello, for the past 2 days I have been at a family members house. When I got home the first thing I listened to hear was my Min Pin who always barks and jumps around when I open the door. Today he didnt do either. He just walked over slowly, than begin to walk back over to his pillow. I noticed his food bowl still had over half the food in it which was also unusual since he loves to eat. So I let him rest a little till I heard something hit his crate. I went over and fount him standing near it, but very weak on his feet and leaning back and forth till he eventually fell over. Immediately I freaked out and ran over to pick him up, he was whining a little so I figured he was in pain. He keeps leaning forward as if he has to vomit but doesnt, and it sounds as if him stomach is empty. At the moment I dont have the money to take him to the vet which could run around $400 according to people online but if needed I will do whatever is necessary to make him feel better.

I'm so sorry for your losses,  I recently lost my pug/dachshund mix after finding out I have brain cysts and possible brain surgery. I miss her everyday but it gets a little better everyday.  Please let me know if you need an ear to listen

Hello all, unfortunately I've got bad news. I took him to the vet and within 10 mins of getting there he passed away. His body begin to crash and his heart stopped. The vet said that since this all happened so sudden that they are positive that he didn't suffer. His symptoms were internal bleeding and a infection of the throat.

I just lost my mom 7 months ago and now I lost the last thing to look forward to seeing everyday, I don't know how im going to continue on with life. I plan on burying him today in my back yard.

Yes, let us know, please as we are  pulling with you.

Around here, NJ, a vet visit would not cost $400 unless there were a number of prescriptions and tests purchased from the vet.  I think an office check is under $100, but not sure.

You have an emergency on your hands!!!!  You don't state how old he is, so it would be impossible to guess what the cause is.....My first thought is Herniated Disc/Disk.  Next: Heart Failure, and then Poisoning comes to mind.....Hopefully, you have already seen the Vet.....Please, let us know.....Karla

I would take to vet, could have ate something while you were away, if it has blocked or damaged the digestive tract it could be very serious.  I'd rather be safe than sorry, I hope everything goes better for your little guy.
