Why is my pug vomiting, stretching strangely, and acting in pain?

Updated On September 23rd, 2025

Pet's info: Dog | Pug | Male | neutered | 10 years and 6 months old | 35 lbs

My pug has had on & off vomiting today. Yellowish with light foam. Weird stretches that I've not seen before - almost like paralyzingly. He then lays down on his stomach & kinda crawls. Then stops, rests & pants until the next episode. He keeps like "wandering" around like he's looking for a comfy place.

Frąnk may be having abdominal pain and pancreatitis can be common in pugs. I recommend he get examined by a veterinarian soon as he could become dehydrated. Also do not give him food while he is still vomiting as well as do not give human pain medication as it can be toxic to dogs.
