My dog vomited green liquid but is acting normal. Should I worry?

Updated On September 23rd, 2025

Pet's info: Dog | Bernese Mountain Dog | Male | unneutered | 1 year and 9 months old | 100 lbs

I am not sure if it is vomit or pee but I just found some clear green liquid on the floor and I am wondering if I should be concerned? He is eating and drinking as usual and he does not appear to be lethargic

It sounds like Baxter may have eaten some grass or plant material, and then threw up. If he's eating and drinking as usual, and isn't lethargic, I would not worry about it. If he does throw up again, you can try withholding food and feeding a bland diet. Withhold food for 12-24 hours, then feed a bland diet of boiled white meat chicken (no bones) and white rice in small amounts several times a day for a couple of days. Then slowly add back in his normal diet. If the vomiting continues in the absence of food, he vomits the bland diet, develops diarrhea, stops drinking water, starts vomiting water, or becomes very lethargic, he will need to see a vet right away.
