Why is my new 2-month-old puppy throwing up food after eating?

Question

Hi! I just got a Border Collie last night. He is 2 months old and I woke up to him throwing up. A few hours later I fed him again and shortly after, he threw up a few times. His poop seems normal and his throw up is just his food. What could it be? Pet's info: Dog | Border Collie | Male | 1 month and 26 days old | 10 lbs

Hi there and thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach to address your concern. If he does not seem lethargic, I would withhold food for 6 hours and then initiate a bland diet as outlined below. If Bernie become lethargic, continues to vomit or develops diarrhea I would strongly recommend that you have a veterinarian examine him to help better determine what the cause could be. I would want to make sure he does not have a foreign body intestinal obstruction from something he ate, parvo virus, etc. Testing such as a parvo test and abdominal x-rays can help rule these out. He may just have a dietary indiscretion from something he ate or a new food / treat you gave him as well. I hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns and I would be happy to help you out further.
