I would not expect a dog to continue to vomit after it has finished medication for a parasite, so I would recommend contacting your veterinarian to let them know that Oreo is still vomiting and see what they would recommend next for him. Good luck! I hope that was helpful and that Oreo feels better soon. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.
