What to do if my puppy is vomiting and has diarrhea from eating trash?

Updated On September 23rd, 2025

Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Medium (23 - 60lb) | Female | unspayed | 9 months and 22 days old | 32 lbs

My 10 month old puppy has been throwing up all day and it started with food coming up but now it's just a clear liquid and she's also been having dirrhea. Last night she got into the garbage but I don't think she got into anything dangerous for dogs but I do know she ate a bunch of noodles and shepards pie. I don't know what the photos are supposed to be.

She might have eaten something spoiled that is causing this. withhold food for 12 hours then offer Remi boiled boneless chicken and rice every 6 hours in small portions. if she is eating and not vomiting, continue with this diet for 2 days. After 2 days, you can put her back gradually on her normal food. If she continues vomiting or is not eating, take her to the vet to get treatment.
