hi all, this is my first post I'm utterly desperate so thanks in advance to anyone with any advice.
My pig who is about 2 and a half suddenly stopped eating and drinking almost 2 weeks ago. Ive been to the vets with him several times as he seemed to have trouble getting food down. He's still interested in the food but cant seem to chew it. The vet has since filed down the molars but only through desperation as she wasnt convinced this was the cause. That was a week ago. He is still bright when let out for a run but we're still syringe feeding him.
It looks like there might be a blockage in his throat as he cant swallow anything solid. Little pieces of apple of lettuce he will try to chew and then bring back and it drops out of his mouth. He's lost a lot of weight and I'm so so worried. The vet is out of ideas and so am i
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
thanks
