Pet's info: Dog | Shorkie | Female | spayed | 10 years and 2 months old | 8 lbs
My dog has thrown up 3 times in the past 2 days small amount of food/bile. She lost her appetite for a small amount of time but now she is acting normal. I did start giving her beggin strips for the first time and they are reddish. Today I noticed her stool was red. She’s acting fine. I’m worried it’s blood but also think it might be from the beggin strips.

You are right, the color could be from the beggin strips. And if Penny has never had them before, this could be the cause of her vomiting. Stop giving them to her, and I will give you a home remedy to see if that helps. Feed her 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 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. I hope this helps!
