Pet's info: Dog | French Bulldog | Male | neutered | 10 months and 11 days old | 25 lbs
My french bulldog puppy (10 months) has been sick quite a lot since we got him. A lot of the time he has eaten things he shouldn't have which is dealt with and is fine. But after throwing up In the night 3 nights in a row we took him to the vets and they helped and he was great. But today he has thrown up twice (he is still playing in the garden but also seems quite sleepy) and not eaten much. Before and after vomiting he dribbles excessively and we have no idea what it is.

I would discuss with the veterinarian the possibility of brachycephalic airway syndrome. This is a disorder of breeds such as French bulldogs which can result in regular vomiting and regurgitation due to unnatural pressures within their body, as they struggle to breathe through small nostrils and a long soft palette. This syndrome can be corrected with a surgery. This is an excellent resource to cover the topic; https://vcahospitals.com/know-your-pet/brachycephalic-airway-syndrome-in-dogs
