Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed | Male | neutered | 7 years and 2 months old
My dog, Jake, Daily, for 2 - 3 times a day, Gags and tries to vomit. Has Dry Heaves. This has been going on for a few weeks now. If he has Gas in him, would 'Gas-X' stop the gagging? He eats small sticks, but vomits them up, leaving him with a sore throat. So, I was wondering if he has Gas? Thanks!

It doesn't sound like Jake has gas and human medications are not always safe and effective for dogs. I recommend taking him to the vet for an exam and blood work to looks for causes of the vomiting. They may also need to take X-rays to rule out a foreign body since he eats sticks. Good luck and kisses to Jake!
