I completely understand why you're worried. It must be incredibly stressful not knowing what's going on with your dog, especially when they're in the hospital. There could be a range of causes for a mystery illness in dogs, from viral or bacterial infections to toxins or underlying systemic issues like liver or kidney problems.
At this point, the most important thing is to keep in close contact with your vet at the hospital. They can provide the latest updates and possibly share test results or symptoms that might give more insight into the situation. While your pet is in the hospital, ensure you have a list of any medications or foods they might have been exposed to, as this information could be crucial in diagnosing the issue.
Once your dog is back home, watch for any changes in behavior like lethargy, vomiting, diarrhea, changes in appetite, or any difficulty breathing. These can be signs that your dog's condition might still need medical attention.
Remember, you're not alone in this — consider scheduling a video consult with one of our vets on Dial A Vet for additional advice, to discuss test results, or to explore next steps for your dog's recovery at home.

Real questions, vet reviewed answers and quality care.
It was so easy, I needed some eye drops for my dog and thinking about going to the vet on a weekend made me nervous about the cost involved. Dial A Vet was a much simpler, cheaper option with faster results. Within 10 minutes of the call, I had the medicine I needed for my dog without an expensive consultation.
A great fast efficient service with a qualified vet who was lovely and helpful. Thank you Samantha. I was able to sort my dog at 6pm on a Sunday night for $49 - amazing. Highly recommend.

What an amazing service, at my wits end as I knew my beautiful dog had an ear infection, could not get into the vet for 4 days. Never knew there was vets online until I googled. Within 15 minutes on a Sunday I was taking to beautiful Samantha who diagnosed and treated our Jasper. Only $49. She trusted that we knew our boy and gave us lots of advice. I will definitely be using dial a vet every time and sharing with all my friends and family. Absolutely fantastic kind caring service. 11/10
