Pet's info: Dog | Bulldog | Male | unneutered | 4 months and 20 days old | 38 lbs

My dog has vomited twice today but He’s been using the bathroom with no problems and is doing normal, he’s eating but after he vomits, does it have to do with him loosing his teeth?. Is it serious or should I wait a couple days before taking him to the vet.

I'm concerning that Arnie is vomiting after eating, that tells me he is sick. I can give you a home remedy to see if that helps. 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 his normal diet. If the vomiting continues in the absence of food, he vomits the bland diet, develops diarrhea, stops drinking water, starts vomiting water, or becomes very lethargic, he will need to see a vet right away. I hope this helps!
