Throwing up can be caused by a food sensitivity, dietary indiscretion, intestinal parasites, an intestinal blockage, bacterial infection, viral infection, the weather, food change, stress, etc. I would fast Juice for 24 hours and then put her on bland food for two days, such as boiled white rice and boiled white boneless chicken meat, fed in small quantities over several feeds and then transition back to regular food slowly over a few days. If this does not clear up the vomiting or if the vomiting increases, or if your dog gets lethargic, she needs to see a veterinarian for an exam as there may be something more serious such as an infection going on

Annie could have a severe GI illness, may have eaten something rotten, could have a foreign body, or could have pancreatitis among other causes. She sounds very sick and this cannot be treated at home. You need to take her into a vet immediately.

You are correct that it is entirely possibly that Annie could have pancreatitis, but the vomiting could also be caused by a GI illness, eating something rotten, or a foreign body. If she has only started throwing up today, you can try a home remedy first before having to take her into the vet. Otherwise, I would have her seen by a vet ASAP. Home remedy: Withhold food for 12-24 hours, then feed a bland diet of boiled white meat chicken (no bones) and white rice in small amounts several times a day for a couple of days. Then slowly add back in her normal diet. If the vomiting continues in the absence of food, she vomits the bland diet, develops diarrhea, stops drinking water, starts vomiting water, or becomes very lethargic, she will need to see a vet right away.

There could be a couple of reasons why Annie Mae is vomiting. It could be she has a serious GI illness, may have eaten something rotten, could have a foreign body, or could have pancreatitis. I see that she isn't spayed, and she could have a pyometra causing the vomiting. A pyometra is an infection of the uterus that is fatal without treatment. Because I can't see her in person to rule out a pyometra, I think the best thing is to take her into a vet immediately. Best of luck.
