My dog throws up his food but not treats. Why is this happening?

Question

My dog keeps throwing up his food, but not his treats. This has been happening for a week or 2, but he only seems to vomit when his food is placed on the ground, but even if his treat is placed on the ground, he usually doesn't vomit his treat. What should I do? Pet's info: Dog | Siberian Husky | Male | neutered | 2 years old

Poor Lucky! Vomiting can be caused by several things; some possibilities include inflammation of the pancreas, inflammatory bowel disease, swallowing something that is now stuck in his intestine or stomach, or other internal illness. Taking him to your vet will allow them to examine him, run blood work, take X-rays, and maybe even change his food to see if he tolerates a different one better. If he isn't keeping any food down, he will begin to lose weight and become lethargic. You can try offering him a different type of dog food to see if he can keep it down, but if the vomiting continues, I recommend a vet visit. Hope this helps!
