Pet's info: Dog | Poodle | Male | neutered | 4 months and 19 days old | 11 lbs
So i have asked this question already. Buddy is throwing up what seems to be a white foamy substance. He has had all his shots. And his been neutered in the last few weeks. What else can this be? I do not have the extra money for the emergency vet. I don't have savings or a job at this point. Can someone please help me? This is also my first dog ever.

Vomiting white foam could be serious or not serious, depending on how Buddy is acting. All it tells us is that something is making him nauseated enough to vomit. He could have eaten something that doesn't agree with his stomach, like new treats, or he got into the garbage. If he is acting pretty normal, and has energy, and does not seem sick or lethargic, you are ok to watch him and see if this resolves. If he is really depressed, mopey, doesn't act like himself or if the vomiting goes on for several days, there may be something very seriously wrong like a blockage or kidney failure or some other issue. That means he needs to see the vet for sure. Hope that helps!
