The previous 2 days my 5yr old lab/Aussie shepherd mix has thrown up once both days. It was just dig food. Today she threw up several times and at one point it was white chunks. She also the up a lot of grass. Do I need to take her in or is there something i can give her? What could be making her sick like this?

I would take Lady into a vet. When a dog has been vomiting for more than 24 hours, then it is time to seek medical attention. This vomiting could be caused by a GI illness, eating something rotten, pancreatitis, or a foreign body. Please take her into a vet now.

Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! While it is not normal, sometimes an episode of vomiting can be episodic and not necessarily something that will actually represent an issue going forward. If this does not occur again then it would be ok to not take her to a veterinarian. However, if the vomiting continues, she should be evaluated by a veterinarian as vomiting can be caused by a disease such as pancreatitis, gastroenteritis, among other possibilities. Good luck and have a good night!

Hi, and thanks for your question. These signs could be compatible with an inflammation infection of the gastrointestinal system and surrounding organs (like pancreas and liver). A clinical examination at your local veterinarian is immediately essential to confirm these clinical suspicions and treat appropriately. Antibiotics and possibly further investigations (like abdominal imaging as ultrasound or radiographs) may be needed. Hope this answer was helpful, but please do not hesitate to contact us again on the forum or by requesting a consultation if you have any more questions or to discuss it any further.
