My dog is vomiting, eating grass, and has eye gunk. Why is she sick?

Updated On September 23rd, 2025

Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Medium (23 - 60lb) | Female | spayed | 2 years and 8 months old

Lately I have noticed my dog hasnt been herself. She has really thick boggers in her eyes, she has puked 2 different times now, still seems to be eating normal but her sleeping has been all off and wakes us up to go outside so she can eat grass. Really sad and depressed looking as well. Nothing in her diet has changed.

Hi there and thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach to address your concern. With your description of Tillie, I would recommend that she be examined by a veterinarian. It sounds as though Tillie may have an infection and may need a systemic antibiotic to help fight the infection. The sooner Tillie is seen by a veterinarian and put on a course of an oral antibiotic, the better and the less chances this infection has of becoming more severe. Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns and I would be more than happy to help you further.
