Why is my dog throwing up yellow fluid frequently but otherwise fine?

Updated On September 23rd, 2025

Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Large (61lb +) | Female | spayed

My German shepherds mix keeps throwing up yellow fluid almost every other day. What do I do? I don’t know what could be wrong. She does not have lose stools, she’s using the restroom fine and eating fine.

It sounds as Shiloh is suffering from a gastrointestinal condition, possibly an infection. it could also be due to ingestion of a foreign body material. i would recommend taking her to the vet the first chance you get, she will need to be checked first, if the vet thinks it's a simple gastrointestinal infection she will need an anti vomiting injection, antibiotics and a special food for a few days in order to get better. if the vet thinks it is more serious she will need a blood test and possibly an ultrasound in order to find out what is wrong.
