I think Cooper is sick... UPDATE
Poor Coop didn't eat breakfast this morning... NEVER EVER in his whole life has he ever turn down a meal.
I fixed his breakfast, called him out of the bedroom and he came willingly... he sniffed but didn't eat and went back to bed, a few minutes later, I went into the bedroom, picked him up and put him in front of his dish and still nothing.
FH is taking him to the vet at 1. This is very odd behavoir for him. What could be wrong?!?
UPDATE: So, FH took him to the Vet yesterday, he thinks it was just a little bug. When FH got home (he left work early), Cooper was still in bed and didn't even get up to greet him like a mad-man like he normally does and he slept until their appt (FH got home at 1:30 and the appt. was at 4). When I got home around 7 he was a jumping maniac again, so it probably was a bug that went away... thank goodness... his appetite is back up to speed and he's as crazy and cuddley as ever!!!

Re: I think Cooper is sick
It could be a multitude of things. Does he have any other symptoms?

Re: I think Cooper is sick
Did he go to the bathroom regularly yesterday? Maybe he is backed up and doesn't feel like eating?

oh i know how this feels!
I wouldn't get too worried yet. My vet just said yesterday that its okay if a dog doesn't feel like eating. They can do that sometimes.
Is he exhibiting any other unusual behavior?
I would maybe wait and see if he eats lunch...

Re: I think Cooper is sick
He was fine yesterday, peed and pooped like normal... this morning he was up for like an hour between 2:30 and 3:30 (I'm exhausted) just wondering around the bedroom. I took him out and he peed and pooped and then he was still just wondering around, very unlike him, he likes to sleep at night when we're sleeping and he just wouldn't settle down
We'll see what the vet says...

He was a little more groggy this morning that usual... nothing too bad, like if he ate and was groggy like he was, I wouldn't think anything of it.

Re: I think Cooper is sick
He's probably just got an upset tummy. Misty gets this way every so often, as long as she eats by the next day I don't worry too much anymore.

Re: I think Cooper is sick
The only other thing I would look at is to see if he has any discharge from his nose. Dogs like BTs & Pugs (like mine) already have a lesser sense of smell. If they become congested at all they have a difficult time smelling & may be cautious to eat even their everyday food.
Hope Cooper feels better!
