    Your dog needs to see a vet. If you cannot afford to pay up front, you may be able to make payment arrangements. If you can't afford medical care for your dog, you should not own one.

    Unfortunately, vet care is part of owning a dog.

    A dog that is not eating and vomiting up water says to me blockage rather than upset tummy.

    You should really stop giving your dog water due to the vomiting and go see your vet right away. If you cannot afford the diagnostic/surgery cost, than euthanasia will be your next choice if it is indeed a blockage.

    I hope you have done the right thing. At least talk to your vet. Sometimes vets will work with low budgets if its not something serious such as a blockage.

    It's a shame, but unfortunately many vets no longer do payment plans because a lot of people never pay back. You should see the tens of thousands of dollars we have in outstanding accounts at my clinic that have been there for years...
