My puppy ate fabric and is throwing up for days. Should I see a vet?

Question

My new lab puppy ate some sort of fabric and has been throwing up large pieces of it for four days. Should I take her to the vet? Pet's info: Dog | Labrador Retriever | Female | unspayed | 2 months and 19 days old

Dr. Leigh, DVM · Accepted Answer

If she has been vomiting for 4 days then she should be examined by a vet to determine if she has an obstruction. Your vet can take an x-ray of her abdomen to help diagnose and then determine the best way to treat. If she has an obstruction she would need surgery to treat the problem.
