Poor Daisy! Pets can vomit/regurgitate for many different reasons and this can range from eating something they shouldn’t have, to parasites, to bacterial overgrowth as well as many other more sinister causes. If it only occurs once and Nellie is normal otherwise, it may not be anything to worry about. If it continues or if she exhibits other signs of illness, have your pup examined today by her veterinarian. I hope she starts feeling better quickly and please feel free to post any additional questions.
