My dog keeps vomiting, losing weight, and vets have no answers.

Question

My dog (11mo) has been vomiting up to 4x daily for the past month. We’ve taken him to the vet multiple times. He’s had X-rays, blood work, etc. no answers. We put him on a bland diet for a week, per the vet, and he didn’t vomit for about 3 days and then started back up again. My vet told me I was under feeding him as he was underweight. He’s underweight because he won’t stop vomiting. I was told he’s fine and to continue feeding regular dog food. He’s not improving and i’m at a loss.

I would seek out someone that can do an ultrasound to measure the intestinal thickness and check the inside of organs, further testing if pancreas and liver and talk about a prescription hypoallergenic diet. This can be a single carb and single protein such as rabbit and potato from royal canin with no other foods. I would start with anal frequent meals so he can't over eat and make himself sick until he builds weight back. You may need to find an internal medicine specialist also. I would do a therapeutic dewormer with fenbendazole.
