Hi so Miley stopped vomiting and diarrhea after giving her a bland diet as advised by a DVM. She stoooed for a day and has thrown up at least 3 times today and no diarrhea . She still eats and drinks and acts normal

Hello, and thank you for your question. Frequent vomiting is definitely a concern, and I would be worried about a possible foreign body causing obstruction. Other possibilities include food sensitivity/allergy, gut parasites, or infection. I would recommend taking Miley back to the vet within the next 12 hours if she is continuing to vomit during this time. They may recommend performing an x-ray to rule out the possibility of an obstruction. At minimum, they can prescribe medication to help settle her tummy and prevent nausea. In the meantime, if you recently offered any new diet or treats, discontinue them and try going back to her old diet. Your vet may also recommend a diet formulated for sensitive stomachs. Small, frequent meals would be best, to allow her to digest the food easier. I hope this helps, and that Miley is feeling better soon.

Poor Abigail. It is difficult to tell exactly what the spots are on her back but possibly a local skin infection. Vomiting can be caused by several things like parasites, a GI obstruction, change in food, human food, toxins, and much more . If she is not eating then I would go ahead and take her to your vet to be checked out. If she is willing to eat and she is never throwing up her food then I would be more concerned about other causes like acid reflux or just an upset tummy. You may try to feed her some plain boneless skinless chicken breasts and see if This settles her tummy. You can also try giving her 20mg Pepcid (aka famotidine) once a day. If this still doesn’t help, then I would have your vet look at her. Your vet will be able to determine the cause and get he started on the proper meds to help her feel better. I hope this helps!
