Updated On September 23rd, 2025

Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Medium (23 - 60lb) | Female | unspayed | 5 months and 12 days old | 21 lbs

My dog Freya is almost 6 monthes old, she is up to date on her shots but hasnt had rabies shot yet. Today she ate breakfast and was acting normal, she threw up the first time three hours after, there wasnt anything in it. She took a nap and then was again acting normal and had zoomies, but again a few hours after eating she threw up her food. She took a nap and is acting normal again and playing, shes hungry, should i feed her? I sometimes put raw goats milk on her food.

Do not give Freya any raw goat's milk, it's not good for her and can make her sick. Feed her 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 her normal diet. If she vomits the bland diet, develops diarrhea, stops drinking water, starts vomiting water, or becomes very lethargic, she will need to see a vet right away.
