The neighbourhood vet did not accept this case as she was fully booked by appointments. The dog had bloody diarrhoea for 4 days. He vomited. The couple's friend referred the case to me.
We had to give the IV drip and anti-diarrhoea medication for at least 2 days. Today is Day 2. The dog still has no appetite but did not have diarrheoa.

3382. A 4-year-old male red-eared slider has not eaten for 4 days. Has very long claws
Aug 22, 2019
Under-sized compared to sibling who is twice as large. Separate tank. Owner added anti-chlorine, multivit, calcium solution and had 2 filters. The sibling is OK but this one does not eat for 4 days. Due to pressure of work for the past 3-4 weeks, both were not let out of the tank to roam on the floor.
Feed - pellets.
Not taken out for roaming on the floor for the past 3-4 weeks
This slider must have prolapsed his male organ which got injured and inflamed. The organ is radio-dense and will be painful. Hence his loss of appetite.
After 5 days of inpatient treatment with antibiotics, anti-inflammatory and syringe-feeding of critical care, the slider regained his appetite and was sent home.
