My dog is timid and sleeps all the time. We just got him 3 days ago and he is not interested in us. He seems sad; he vomits and seems sick. We took him to the Vet and he's healthy...

You may want to have a bile acids test done to be sure your puppy isn't suffering from a liver shunt. What you're describing are a few of the symptoms for liver problems.

More Questions than Answers
by: Lynda Owen

I guess i have alot of questions in order to better give you my input, such as, is this a puppy or adult dog? was it a shelter/rescue dog? in general, dogs dont act sad or timid without good cause. also, while the vet may have given him/her a clean bill of health, it isnt common without cause for dogs to just vomit. there are alot of reasons for timidness but most of them stem from some sort of fear. i would almost reccomend you take the puppy to someone else for a second opinion. good luck and keep us posted. cotons are without a doubt the "happiest" natured dogs out there. sorry i wish i was more help. give the baby our love, lynda
