I'm so sorry that someone did not answer your question yesterday. We always try to get to urgent questions ASAP. Anytime there is vomiting that continues as frequently as Lubo's did, I recommend veterinarian attention for an anti-vomiting medication and to make sure there isn't anything serious going on. I hope Lubo has been treated and is feeling better. Again, I'm sorry that we didn't get to your question yesterday. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.
