Help! My new puppy is throwing up milky yellow slime. What to do?

Question

Hello, we just got a new Border Collie puppy. He was fine this morning, but when I got home I found this Milky yellow slimy puke. Is this normal, I'm hoping he just ate too much and it's not anything serious. Thank you for your time. Pet's info: Dog | Border Collie | Male | unneutered | 2 lbs

Congrats on your new puppy, but I'm sorry Dean vomited! It could be that he ate something that upset his stomach, has intestinal worms, a change of diet, GI illness, or a foreign body causing his vomiting. I can give you a home remedy to see if that helps. Withhold food for 6 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!
