If Sammy has been vomiting that frequently, we need to consider other causes in addition to allergies including parasites, gastrointestinal foreign body or intussusception, liver disease and inflammatory bowel disease. Since he is a puppy, a fecal exam, deworming and abdominal x-rays are strongly advised. Please follow up with your veterinarian to discuss these tests. As far as diets are concerned, a novel protein (rabbit, duck, venison, kangaroo) or hydrolyzed diet is recommended.
