My dog has been dry heaving all night, is there anything I can do for him? Can I bring him to a Petco location to have him looked at?

An immediate check up is required as gastrointestinal inflammation/infection may be affecting Max. A clinical examination at your local veterinarian is immediately essential to confirm this clinical suspicion and treat appropriately. Antiemetic medications and antibiotics and possibly further investigations (like abdominal imaging as ultrasound or radiographs) may be needed. Hope this answer was helpful, but please do not hesitate to contact us again on the forum or by requesting a consultation if you have any more questions or to discuss it any further.

Poor Ella! Given that she has been dry heaving multiple times throughout the day and is being lethargic but otherwise eating, I'd keep an eye on her for now. If she is still acting this way in the morning, then I would take her into the vet. I hope this helps.
