My dog vomits often but is otherwise normal. What can I do at home?

Question

My dog, Paco, is a Chihuahua mix and has recently been puking often. He's not lethargic, he's eating and drinking normal, he has normal bowel movements, there's nothing in his feces. He will puke more then once, right in a row then he'll be fine.. it's been like this for about a week... I just need help for my dog and I can't afford to take him to the vet. Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Small (up to 22lb) | Male | neutered | 6 years and 10 months old | 12 lbs

Just like humans, dogs can vomit for many reasons. Unfortunately, without knowing the cause, it's impossible to know how best to help Paco. Here is a link with extensive information about vomiting: https://www.petcoach.co/article/vomiting-in-dogs/ You may look into financing through Care Credit or Scratch Pay (information available online) if Paco needs to be examined. If Paco is continuing to vomit despite fasting/bland diet for 24 hours, I recommend to have him examined by the veterinarian. I hope this helps and please feel free to post any additional questions.
